I would expect that the elected representative acted I. The best interests of the majority of their constituents over that of a few. That’s literally what an elected officials job is supposed to be.
From what perspective though? Because you could also look at this as the erosion of the bargaining power of every US worker. From that perspective the majority was absolutely not served.
The entire point of the collective bargaining process is that it’s supposed to cause disruption. The scope of the disruption should not matter. If your workers not working would cause the collapse of the economy, they should probably be getting whatever they want. If you ask me, taking someone’s ability to determine the value of their work is basically slavery. If they all had decided to just quit their jobs instead of entering the bargaining process in good faith, would you have been in support of forcing those people to work those jobs against their will because of the economic fallout? There is no difference between these two paths in my mind.

Then this discussion is moot. The difference between these two is distinct and to suggest otherwise is a false equivalence.
I’m sorry you feel the need to turn to insults and derision. That does nothing to support you position and serves only to make you an unlikable person.

You are doing serious mental gymnastics to make these arguments work…
When capital fucks labour, there is no release valve ;)

Others have explained the flaw in your logic.
You are just here to shill neo liberal circle jerk.
People ain’t having it.
The fucking irony of this offense after calling me “disingenuous”. It just makes you an unlikable person.
You’re wrong, and I find you far more unlikable than the other commenter. Sorry, not sorry.
Ouch
