No need to go to court. They can strike.

They can't. They do ignore it and discard it though. They also ignore and discard all State constitutions.
Youn have not read the links I have posted. They would be taken to court for an illegal strike

No court has authority or the ability to stop a strike.
They have the ability to say strikers can be fired if the strike is deemed illegal

Fascism.

No, they don't. Strikers can be fired by their employer anytime they strike (or at any time, really).
Not if they have not negoitiatted the contract. A contract is done so if they strike they are going against the contract

No contract was negotiated. It was dictated.
I don't agree with the government EVER getting involved in the economy - unless a major, declared war is ongoing.
Because - unlike most of you lot (on both sides)?
I believe in 'FREE ENTERPRISE'.
But the railroad union workers are pretty pathetic themselves to be whining about Biden sending them back to work.
The amount of economic devastation their strike might have caused should be more important to them then getting free coffee on their lunch breaks.
'For months, business groups have been calling on the government to prevent a strike, warning of economic calamity.'

And I do not BEGIN to care what their gripe was.
They have a job.
They don't like it?
Quit it.
Don't hurt hundreds of millions of people and strike because they want 'a nicer, second car for the wife'.
Lazy, selfish pricks.
And if my words offend rail workers or union lovers?
GOOD!!!

The House (290-137) and the Senate (80-15) voted overwhelmingly to stop the strike.
With large, bipartisan support.
It is impossible that Biden OR the Dems can get the full blame for stopping the strike.
Whoever wrote the OP article, appears to be an idiot.
Once again, I DESPISE both parties.
You have no idea what fascism is. You misuse it over and over.
What free enterprise? Our first tariff was in 1789. We have 1250 of them. We have had to bust trust since the 1800s. The natural process for business is to plot and plan ways to maximize profits. That results in collusion, oligopoly, and then monopoly. We have an oligopoly now. Almost every industry is controlled by a small number of companies. Look at cable, cell phones, department stores, grocery stores ETC, We have an illusion of choice. Once we did have a lot of choices. That resulted in price wars, innovation and competition through good service. Those days are long gone.

You are now locked in paradox. You support the strike, but you condemn it at the same time. Which is it, dude??

You know...the one around you that you are about to list.
What is 'bust trust'???!?
Yes. Profit is the lifeblood of any business. No profit, eventually no business.
No, it doesn't. Even if a monopoly occurs, it's unstable. It won't last. Sooner, more probably than later, some small startup is going to come along and blow their kneecaps off. The ONLY way a monopoly can continue to be sustained is by government interference.
So?
So?
There are currently some 450 cable companies across the States.
Again, hundreds of companies manufacturing cell phones.
Thousands of different companies.
There are currently some 63,000 grocery store chains or independents in the States.
No illusion.
You still do.
A company is successful because it provides a product or service that people want to buy at the agreed upon price. I know you can't seem to get that through your thick head.
No they rejected all contract negotiations. Only a very few of the railroad un ions rejected the contract
