Letter: Shutdown? Strike? How about a sick-out?

A discussion on CNN recently mentioned that President Donald Trump didn't like the term "shutdown,” but preferred the term "strike."

I heard a couple of presidents of government unions discussing the shutdown and wondered why they didn't consider a strike. I believe the other three-quarters of employees should strike. That would bring things to a head in a real hurry.

If a strike is anathema to government employees, they might consider a sick-out. It is the middle of flu season.
