I grew up under Thatcher in 80s Britain (also 70's but too young to see it).

Yes, you can definitely 'solve' the problem of industry strikes by completely destroying the industry involved.

Since labor is a substantial input into the cost of services, it also seems like a plan to have at least 10% inflation next year.
