I don't think actors getting paid more is taking money away from electricians. Hollywood execs pay is up 53% from 2018. I suspect if actors get the deal they want, their increased pay might come from the $500 million a year paychecks from the executives and not the electrician.

Honestly, if you side with management, you're kind of a sucker.
- donatj 3y agoYou misstate my point either by accident or to build a strawman. The point I am making is that Electricians are fairly paid, unlike actors who already have a sweetheart deal. Siding with anti-technology rent-seekers seems far sillier.

- terminatornet 3y agoWhat sweetheart deal are you referring to? "According to SAG-AFTRA, only 14% of its members make at least $26,470 annually to qualify for SAG-AFTRA healthcare coverage" This doesn't seem like the majority of actors in the union are being paid well https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/actors-strike-hollywood-sag-aftra-living-wage-healthcare-struggle-1234798347/ https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/act...
