You are not owed someone else’s labor.

>These people, all of them, killed a baby.

A hospital that understaffed their hospital may have led to the death of a child. There's one entity at fault here.

Nurses aren't slaves. They aren't saints either. They aren't required to stick around in unsafe situations and give their labor out of the goodness of their hearts. I know we all expect this of women especially and women dominated fields, but it's bullshit. These nurses went on strike because the hospital refused to have safe staffing ratios. The nurses were yelling outside the building that patients are in danger because of the ratios. If anyone died because of that it's because of the hospital administrators. Period.

You are wrong. Firemen and police cant strike, so they’re slaves?

These nurses aren't in public hospitals. The Taylor Laws don't apply to them.

You are wrong. But do go on.

Hospitals should be covered the same. Their greed caused this.

You got it! The hospital would be at fault for unsafe staffing ratios. Not the nurses who went on strike warning everyone about their unsafe staffing ratios.

Damn those greedy money grubbing nurses asking for frivolous things like adequate staffing. I can't tell if you're a corporate brownnoser or you just don't understand what the strike was about.

The strike was about money and power, nothing else.

It's pretty obvious you have no idea what the strike was about, which isn't really excusable considering both sides acknowledged what the main sticking points were. I have no idea what you get out of being so aggressively ignorant.

I apologize for calling you a troll then. You're just aggressively stupid. I don't understand how people like you can be so confident in your opinions despite knowing nothing about a topic. The hospital admins and the strikers both acknowledged staffing was a key issue here, you're the only low effort troll pretending otherwise.

Notice how you're still ignoring their repeated calls to address staffing numbers? You're so committed to pushing this greedy nurses narrative that you're ignoring what half the negotiation was about. You're a disingenuous troll.

They did not kill a baby.

If the hospital wanted staffing, they should have paid someone to do it.

Pay nurses and adequate staffing seems like a solution.

Do you not know that nurses were brought in and paid high wages while the rest were on strike? Hospitals weren't left empty. Read a minute of information about what you're talking about before you comment I beg you.

You have no idea what you're talking about, but you say it very boldly so I'll give you that.

Why did the hospital hire nurses who don't know how to work in a hospital setting? Travel nurses are brought into hospitals all the time. If they don't know what they're doing, because the administration is hiring inadequate nurses or not bothering to train them. They knew the strike was happening and they had tons of forewarning. There's no excuse.

Not really. Everyone was aware a walk out was going to happen. The hospital failed to take the necessary action.

The nurses gave notice ahead of time and the execs knew way in advance and understood the consequences. This is absolutely not on them.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Nurses went on strike because they recognized they had unsafe staffing ratios. Meaning there was one nurse for 20 patients in some cases. If the hospital chose to continue to understaff during the strike, they are fully liable for anything that happened. Not only that, they proved the nurses were right in the first place. People die when there aren't enough nurses to tend to them.

Wow, great rebuttal. You are flatly wrong. A quick Google about what the nurses union listed as their main concern for the strike would answer the question for you.
