To say “breaking the strike led to train disasters” is so far beyond gross oversimplification it boggles the mind.

I’m willing to admit the causality is overstated, but he still should not have broken that strike. And, yes, I read the article and it is commendable that they continued to pressure the companies for sick days which they eventually approved. But an important question is: When did they grant it?

From what I can see, they granted workers paid time in May/June 2023. Better late than never.

But the Palestine railroad disaster happened in Februrary 2023. I’m willing to say that this event, in light of the lack of the strike, was what allowed for there to be enough pressure to make the train companies grant the sick days concession. I bet if it didn’t happen, there wouldn’t be sick days now. It would have just been better if the strike happened which could have led to sick days potentially without the Palestine incident (especially if they were on strike).

I’m no Biden fan but the real problem is that many liberals especially younger ones read nothing besides sensational headlines and live on social media rage bait.

Really? That’s the real problem, huh? Interesting analysis.
