According to reports, producers expect writers will run out of money, possibly lose their homes and be forced to come to bargaining table. Producers denied these reports.

That's so horrible, threatening people's homes. Just the fact that they have enough money to try to wait it out while some writers are borrowing suits for their award shows proves the imbalance of profits, and it proves their point: that the studios should be able to pay the creators and workers if they weren't so greedy and paying their execs millions of dollars to remove shows from existence and say they're business geniuses.

Does anyone know if there's a way to donate or support the unions if it ends up coming down to people's homes and stuff being on the line?
