In your mind there is no difference between an authorization for a strike, and striking.
There is no difference between authorizing a lockout, and locking out.
Not much sense in going on when there is such a disparity in how the language works.
Sad.
And, you've ignored the cherry-picking misquote which led to an accusation of being dishonest.
I guess I'm left with ed to talk to.
