11. I will give this another kick, I don't think people realize how brave these people are
they lose money they can ill afford when they go on strike, how many of us would go out and protest something of real importance and in the process lose the security of knowing you will have enough money by the end of the week to pay your bills and feed your children.

Striking is not as easy as some people seem to think, for some it is downright scary and yet they don't bow out when called upon to strike for better working conditions health care concerns etc...

They do it for you and for me not only themselves and should be acknowledged.
