    Yet another example of why “opt-in” should be the default instead of “opt-out”. Despite who SAG is supposed to be helping, they don’t half seem to hate people working in the industry.

      No, it’s an example of why people should involve themselves in their union. Opt-in unions is just a way that conservatives and employers found to make sure that unions lose power.

        Except in this case actors are systematically signed up to potentially lose a lit of money or lose work completely. I can’t begin to fathom why SAG thought anyone would be on-board with this. Well, other than a big ol’ under-the-table payout for them.

        Edit: seems people are in support of workers getting shafted by those who are supposed to represent them. Interesting. The internet never fails to sicken.
