In cases where strikes are illegal, they are made so because voters have determined that it is in society's best interest to make them so.

We could say that about just about any major public policy move, now couldn't we? For example:

"In cases where the United States recklessly invades other countries, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths and decades of instability -- as it did most recently in Iraq, for example -- it does so because voters have determined (indirectly, my electing leaders inclined to such actions) that it is in society's best interest to do so."

The first part is proven by the voters re-electing the same people who made that decision.

The second part should be changed to that they're voting in the United State's best interests, which doesn't necessarily have to be society's best interest.
