ND - CLS V1Tournament: Damus | Round: 6 | Opponent: Marlborough LK | Judge: Claudia Ribeira The right to strike is a dangerous distraction that prevents the labor movement from challenging systems at the root cause of class inequality and that make it structurally impossible for legal institutions to protect workers. Empirically "right to strike" legislation hamstrings actual strikes via circumventive policies that jail strikers for engaging in theft, violence, etc while allowing for a façade of acceptance and forcing union representation, wages, and economic equality to plummet. The AFF results in scattered, ineffective, and "respectable" strikes and labor disputes re-routed towards legal arbitration while increased legal incorporation results in more tools for the elite to constrain the labor movement — turns case and kills workers' movement writ large. Vote NEG for a "direct endorsement of militancy and a turn away from the law and instead towards a political program that might advance the interests of the working class regardless of what the law might hold"White 18 (Ahmed White – Nicholaus Rosenbaum Professor of Law @ University of Colorado Law School, "Its Own Dubious Battle: The Impossible Defense of an Effective Right to Strike", https://scholar.law.colorado.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2369andcontext=articles , 2018, pgs. 1065-1073, EmmieeM) There is no strike wave, just media smoke tricks. Empirics on current strike trends and outcomes of "Right to Strike" legislation go heavily NEG – you cannot legalize revolution and all legislation is merely a ruse to constrain the workers' movement through the guise of "legal management".White 18 (Ahmed White – Nicholaus Rosenbaum Professor of Law @ University of Colorado Law School, "Its Own Dubious Battle: The Impossible Defense of an Effective Right to Strike", https://scholar.law.colorado.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=2369andcontext=articles , 2018, pgs. 1124-1131, EmmieeM) | 11/9/21 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
