I'm very glad to see that US workers finally start to make their voices heard on a meaningful scale!

And a little amused at the utter inability of managements to deal with a world in which "just boss the underlings around, because we can" isn't a viable tactic anymore.

    It's giving me hope for the future of workers, I'm thinking of deeper effects strikes like this could have. Thousands of people going on strike, a lot of them likely for the first time. If these get results, thousands of people will know first hand the power of class-consciousness and collective action, without relying on voting or petitions but concrete action. It will inspire their views going forward and inspire other workers.
