All employees should unionize and go on strike.

If they already have a union, they should strike. If only for a week, to prove they can whenever they want.

The moment I get inconvenienced and hear its about a strike. I never blame the workers and my annoyance is halved.

I disagree, the annoyance should be doubled, but directed to those in charge of the workers who treated them bad enough to want to strike.

Of course what I mean is with the people I'm dealing with. For example airline flight crew goes on strike. The guy at the ticket counter is not the one that did it. But I would blow up the executives in a heart beat.

Not if we're talking about cops.

They should go on strike and stay on strike that's fine actually

Didn't the NYPD do that once and crime went down?

It was more of a slowdown actually, or I suppose more accurately a direct attempt at the "give the people what they are asking for and show them why they won't like it".

In short, the police continued to investigate major crimes. But focus less on trying to catch people in small crimes etc... IE stop and frisk kind of nonsense etc... expecting to come out of it saying "see now look how many major crimes happened because we didn't nip things in the bud", and it ended basically with major crime going down, and people being happier with the police.

None of the issues with police in America would be fixed by taking away their unions. Nor do any of the fixes require doing so.

ACAB, but even class-betraying bastards are workers who deserve a collective voice in how they are managed.
