Now that the transport strike is over, let us pass a law that all union members have to be issued with cards upon payment of their fees.

Not only will this assist in quantifying the damage to be expected when there is a strike, but if the permission to strike includes a directive that only those producing valid union cards will be considered legal strikers, then we will be able to know who to charge with murder and which union is responsible in monetary terms for the ensuing loss.
