Here is what it comes down to Dark.

What if that person was the only wage earner in the family?

What if so long as they’re striking they’re not making money or unemployment.

They’ve got no cash income.

Suppose they’ve got no or very little effective savings.

Suppose the guy has two kids and a wife.

Would you rather the kids and the wife starve/suffer from malnutrition than the striking guy be able to get food stamps now that he’s not making any money?

Then he can find another job or break ranks with the union. Failing that, he can starve. His right to strike is not a right to my money.
