The Las Vegas Strip Could Be the Site of the Largest Hospitality Strike in U.S. History, 35,000 Workers Ready to Strike Days Before Las Vegas’s Big Formula 1 Kick-Off Weekend
Absolutely love Formula 1, been a fan for 30 years, find the whole cutting edge technology and it's public applications fascinating...
...but yeah lol fuck the circus. Formula 1 has gone from pure greed on the organisation front to unadulterated morally bankrupt and taking-the-piss greed. Saudi, Qatar, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi... yeah nah fuck that noise, a bit of fire under Liberty Media's chair would do them good.
It runs the risk of fucking the Vegas fanbase off 2005-stylez, but hey it can't have been too terrible if there's now three US races on the calendar.
I was in Vegas last month. Uber/Lyft drivers are fed up too. One driver told me that he used to meet his goals by 11am. Because of F1 construction traffic, now he’s driving an extra 10-15 hours per day to meet those same goals. He’s gonna be out of town this F1 month, visiting a friend in another state to consider moving there.
Life is becoming worse for the residents, while the casinos get richer.
We need to align ALL of the nations unions contract dates so that when one union goes on strike, ALL of the other Unions members are available to strike against the Capitalists nas a group.
