Hmm, "Illegal to strike" sounds a lot like "forced labor".

The fuck they gonna do, chain them to a desk? Newsflash assholes, jailing teachers isn't gonna fucking put them back in classrooms.

No but it will convince them to quit and they city can hire cheaper teachers that "aren't woke".

I have a feeling that we're already skewing this way nationally with low pay and high academic requirements.

Nah, they'll pull a Reagan and tell everyone striking that they're fired.

"Fun" fact: Reagan's little stunt with the air traffic controllers left the government with a severe shortage in talent and experience in air traffic controllers for a good decade afterwards. Turns out you can't just fire everyone in the country who does a given job without consequences, particularly with a job that is high stress.
