Yeah, I’m with you there, though I’m likely further to the left than you, I believe all industries should either be nationalized or socialized depending on its function.
I think we'd be much better served trying to make that happen than argue if a strike would've been more successful or not. At the end of the day, we'll never know the answer there. It's better we agree that good was done. We disagree on if that was the most good possible or not, but we agree it was good. We're better off trying to do more good than figure out if we maximized that previous good. One in the hand is worth two in the bush after all.
Ok, now on this point I agree with you completely. If losing a service will do that much damage to the public, then that service should be socialized.
