| Message | this is ridiculous so if I worked at mcdonalds I could go on strike to show my support for the postal workers who are also on strike even though this has no bearing on my pay and current work condition we cannot allow a bill this illogical to pass |

| Message | Strike ballots still have to take place so unions would have to convince members to support action, so I don't see your problem. |

| Message | my problem is that people would go on strike for a cause that has nothing to do with their current work status that makes no sense and is bad for buisness |
