You're not wrong. Still, they're going to shoot us, like they did before, but the strike will work, like it did before. It will still be worth it for our descendants. I don't think we're going to get to enjoy it personally. I also don't care. We're not really going to get anywhere good until the average person plants trees to make shade for future generations to enjoy.

To answer some potential questions, yes, I joined a union and pay dues, attend meetings, etc. Yes, I've protested with them. No, I haven't striked yet, but I'm about there. I have a lot of respect for the work we do in our industry and I don't like the idea of work stoppages. Nonetheless, ownership has made it pretty clear that any advances we make in efficiency will be distributed among themselves with no regard to our or anyone else's quality of life.
