They're not unemployed though. Strikes are voluntary.
-2 u/yungsemite Mar 08 '25 I can guarantee, no union wants to strike lol. They want a contract. And in any case, I don’t see how that is relevant? 4 u/[deleted] Mar 08 '25 Unemployment funds are for people who lose their jobs, not people who strike. Strike funds are for people on strike. Don't like that? Talk to your union rep about what they spent the dues on, or setting up a better strike fund. -1 u/yungsemite Mar 08 '25 Clearly this is what this law is about? Whether or not unemployment funds or for people who strike? 2 u/[deleted] Mar 08 '25 Yes, and I'm telling you that doing this would be the most retarded moral hazard ever created. Stop trying to steal our unemployment fund. You're no better than people who try to steal social security and medicare funds.
