Successful strikes require a strike fund, money to pay bills while hourly workers are not working hours. Americans largely live paycheck to paycheck, with little to no savings. Without funds, strikes end prematurely due to the threat of starvation and eviction.

what you wrote has always been a problem and that never stopped strikes.
doing nothing instead won’t solve your problems.
