I understand what you're saying, but walking out or forcing negotiations during a global pandemic is sociopathic, and the union would gather a massive amount of political venom.

I would not be surprised if the pay increase is a preemptive move prevent unionization. But then again, could just be real increase in demand.

I don't know how you think bargaining works, but they don't just demand "do XYZ or we'll all walk out". There's lots of levers on both sides. The point of negotiation is to arrive at a mutually beneficial solution. Striking is always a last resort, and quite rare, since it's bad for workers, too.

Not just venom, they are begging for destruction.

People seem to forget the very meaning of a state. Spoiler: it is about power, and physical power.
