Hollywood's Writers' Strike

That's why I can't stand unions, and will usually cross picket lines.

I'm sorry, but to put others out of work for the strikers' gains is ridiculous and selfish, IMHO.

When the big grocery strike happened, my choices were to cross the lines or drive about 10 miles to a non-union store that didn't even carry everything I needed. Sorry, but I wasn't about to waste my gas money and inconvenience myself because some people had issues with their job. Their problem was not my problem, nor was I going to make it so.

I know I don't hold the popular opinion about it, but I firmly stand by it.
