Labor, management and owners are all ultimately on the same team to provide goods and services that attract buyers/clients in the free market.

There is plenty of room for labor, management and owners to fight out their differences on myriad issues, including pay, benefits and working conditions. That’s all fair game.

But ultimately, the marketplace exerts discipline on all three. If a strike goes on too long, the company goes out of business and everyone loses.

Turning strikes into a no risk proposition to one party out of the three does not level the playing field. It puts government into full support of an extortion racket.

In Oregon, where this same legislation is being considered, many strikes are against local school districts.
