Q. With respect to employer behaviour, it is commonly believed that the firing of the public-sector air traffic controllers by President Ronald Reagan during the illegal PATCO strike in 1981 created a climate in which it was acceptable for private-sector employers to actively fight unions and resist their legal strikes. Illustrate what arguments might someone give to support this acceptance? Illustrate what arguments might someone give to dispel the logic of this acceptance? Do you think the President made the right decision in firing the air traffic controllers? Explain why or explain why not?
