    3/4 of the unions involved had already approved the deal the government forced

    Nowhere near 3/4 of the union MEMBERS, though. The ones that had already caved were a lot of smaller unions with much less bargaining power than the bigger ones who were able to hold on until Biden pulled the rug from under them.

    A strike could have cost 750k jobs across the entire economy

    Not without corporations doing the actual firing. Like Biden, you’re acting like mass layoffs are just a natural consequence of workers demanding fair pay and decent conditions.

    It isn’t. It’s the result of giant corporations CHOOSING to destroy lives to save their equivalent of pocket change that they could easily spare.

    Joe ain’t left-wing, that’s for sure

    True.

    he’s the best by far least awful candidate in the batch at this point (that can win the presidency while we’re locked into a 2 party system).

    Fixed that for you.
