      At least this would be a reason instead of them just giving imaginary stock to companies who are paying in imaginary money

    A strike would be fascinating. You can’t just stop a chip fab. There could be huge batch losses.

        I am scared to see what south Korea would do in response to a strike.

        And realize I fully expect south Korea to not allow any labor power without knowing if that’s even the case
