How can they bust unions like that and just getting told to reopen? Let them pay the yearly income of these stores as a fine to the unions fund instead!
That is not a win in my view. That only means that they have to pay what they had to pay anyway the store were open. That’s like literally no fine. It was worth it for them to try to close the store. At worst they need to reopen the store and continue. What is the backpay of the baristas? 4 worker each 30k/year? That does not hurt them. And you know this because they just did it and will do it again. Where is the fine that hurts so much, that they do not dare to try to bust other locations again and again? The fact that they continue this behavior tells you everything you need to know.
I rewatched the Video after all these years and have to say: In some aspects it aged like milk. For example 6:11 “The word here is ‘tend’. Liberals are still capitalist and conservatives still stand for democracy”. Are they? The Conservatives love for democracy is eroding hard. Fascism is really tightly bonded to the “conservatives” of today. Being a nazi, wanting a dictator or at least an authoritarian leader like Putin seems pretty popular in the conservative mindset.

That was true in the beginning, yes. But now that this topic is not any more a special thing for some game or movie but developing into the modus operandi, media companies start to crack down on those rules and try to alter the deals with as much force as possible to gain an advantage. The strike of the SAG right now is only the beginning of reactions to these new developments of maximizing profits by taking advantage of uneven bargaining power.
