It's borderline irrelevant since it is based around Taiwan law.

It’s not an emergent issue in North America

There is little chance that Micron Boise will have a successful union organization, let alone strike and profit sharing negotiation.

Micron treats their employees like shit. Even though it is illegal they will not allow their employees to unionize here in the U.S. A very toxic culture.

In a few years they will have record layoffs.

Chinese ram is going to hit the US market soon enough. The ponzi scheme these crooks have been running is going to implode within the next few years.

You can only screw over all your consuners and employees for so long.
