I guess you haven't been following the news.

The previous commenters clearly makes a reference to the rail worker's strike from a few months ago, which was the first strike in decades powerful enough to threaten a "wider disruption to the economy", and the fact that government quickly passed special laws to declare that strike illegal.

So, to spell it out for other living under a rock:

- Labor fighting for better work conditions threaten a wider disruption to the economy, government fights and bends rules against labor. - Capital losing bets threaten a wider disruption to the economy, government fights and bends rules in favor of capital.

Why don't they outlaw strikes in general?
