California governor vetoes bill offering unemployment pay to strikers

Fuck you, Newsome. I think pay for striking workers would be overwhelmingly popular with voters. I'm voting against this turkey next chance I get.

Unions getting bailed out by government gives them less leverage. Why bargain with the union if the government will just step in when it gets rough?
that makes no sense. Taking some risk out of striking makes it harder to dismiss the threat of a strike which increases the incentive businesses have to improve contracts. Its clear that the profits these businesses are making aren't getting back to workers so more threats from unions makes the economy more stable.
What do you mean?
