Coast Guard staff strike.

What kind of rubbish is this?

You blokes over across the pond allow essential public service employees
to 
strike? I'd fire the lot of them. Nobody forced them to take those jobs.
If 
they don't like their pay then get a higher paying job and stop putting 
their greed before public safety.

In the meantime you Brit yachties should consider staying ashore. Many of 
you need rescuing every other time you embark so why take the chance of 
being on your own?
