I think the bad guys are actually making it easier to have an effective strike. The bad guys are cutting employment to the bone and beyond- so it's way worse for them if even a small percentage of their workforce doesn't show up, and stuff doesn't get done

It still has to be organized though with a union, you need things like strike funds and the small amount of legal protections that come with having a union such as preventing them from just firing the workers who don't show up. It has to be a large amount of people that are organized, otherwise the companies can just fire them and find replacements and the strike will be over.
