   Stop blaming strikes for economic damage. Strikes are a logical response to overreach and greed from corporations and the wealthy. If there is resulting economic damage, look to those who drove the workers to strike in the first instance.

     @georgetakei "economic damage" is such a weasel-word anyway. Skilled, valuable workers aren't able to make an honest living. That damages the economy too.... but we only talk about "economic damage" when we can point to a dipping stock price or something else that hits a billionaire's balance sheet.

     @georgetakei Even Leslie Jones has something to say, as she fights for fellow actors and speaks up on the misconception that all Union members are "rich":
