They do.

They care so much they decide to go on strike at 4am and provide zero opportunity for them to arrange alternate transportation.

Let them strike. Racine apparently can function without public transit. I'm sure Folktunes and Mike Mathiiass are shuttling the needy in their hybrids.

I quote myself from my own blog post:

What ’s the real difference between Wes Gable, the union president, and a jihadist? Not much, since the jihadist also strikes at innocent people, women, children, etc. Only difference is Gable and his thugs haven’t actually killed anyone.

But their approach and tactics are the same.

A strike only hurts the 20 people who need to ride the bus. Since it's run by government, there is not a profit motive to keep it operating.
