No, there is a Strike Fund. But it doesn’t last long. I remember when UPS went on strike. We immediately signed with FEDEX and when UPS finally steeled it was determined that it would take ten years for each employee to earn back the money they lost.

The UAW's strike fund is almost one billion dollars.

One of the big unions made a 53 million dollar contribution to the Dems last week, I wonder if the workers will remember that number when/if they strike and the strike fund runs out in the first or second week.
