New York Times Tech Workers Go on Strike

Not everyone has a rich family to fall back on, bud. You could say "fall back on the government" but then this is how the government would do it. They wouldn't want you to fire people for no reason at all. In the same way that people are paid a certain wage as an agreement, there are other conditions too. This can be part of those conditions.

Your claim of: > Yes, and it's an employee's responsibility to not depend on a single job, and to be prepared for the possibility that it might go away. That's the mindset we should be teaching people, because it's REALITY.

is capitalist mindset that thinks there's never a chance of change. Kinda pathetic for a MIT grad, tbh.

Personal attacks are shite, especially when they dig into someone's background for extra 'bite'.

P.s. what rock have you been living under where you have a preconception that all MIT graduates are ethical white knights that share all of your own opinions?

It's one of the most varietal student bodies at a school that forks people majorly into military programs and research labs.. to expect harmonious homogeny regarding ethical opinions from the graduates is ridiculous.
