What should I do????????? help!!?!?!?!?!

The Issue

Workers across the nation have gone out on indefinite strike over what they claim are substandard wages in the Beef-Based Agriculture industry.
The Debate

1. "We are the backbone of this country, and we demand a fair wage rise!" says union leader Al Falopian. "I don't think a 20% increase over two years is too much to ask. Unless the government forces employers to give us our due, we'll shut this whole industry down! Let's see how well Codawa's economy manages without any Beef-Based Agriculture, huh?"


2. "We pay our employees very generous wages," says employer representative Peggy Falopian. "Especially when you consider that without us, they'd be OUT ON THE STREET. Hear that, you scumbags? OUT ON THE STREET! Anyway, my point is, if you cave in, you make our entire industry uncompetitive. You can't do that in the global marketplace. It'll hurt the whole country. The best solution, economically speaking, would be to relax industrial laws and allow us to fire troublemakers on the spot."

The Government Position

The government has yet to formalize a position on this issue.

Step 1, cut out the stupidly excessive ? and !

Step 2, form your own opinion and answer the issue however you like, including dismissal.

It really depends what you want your country to do economically.Usually if there's something thats a dilemma, i dismiss it.

Going with the second option is a good idea. It's good for a healthy market place and economy. Workers should be thankful for having a job. Besides, there are more productive ways of getting attention other than striking.

Result of choosing option #1:
If you choose option #1 then all of your other industries' workers will go on strike too, hoping for an equally generous deal... which will cripple your economy.

I prefer option 1 but since it hurts the economy a little its better to dismiss it. I don't like the 2nd option at all since its immoral and very bad for the working class.
