see that's the bit I have a hard time understanding. How long do they expect to get a cut of something they made and sold. I mean if I buy a house for $90 000 and sell it for $190 000 I'm sure as hell not going to cut the guy who built the house in on the profit I made. And if the person I sold the house to turns around and sells it next week for $3 000 000 well then it sucks to be me but I'm not owed any of that money either. If anything this will simply make producers work with writers who will sell their work to them outright.

They shouldn't be paid at all while on strike

I heard it throughout the industry grapevine that the studios are arranged to hold out for a whole year. those days it replaced into pronounced in the information that the writers have lost, by way of strike, any earnings they might have gained had they gained the strike in the 1st place.

When you go on strike you do not get paid, you also cannot collect unemployment benefits. You get a strike allowance from the union, that is it

Hi...I being in the UK. have No..idea about the 'writers strike'
but, I totally agree with your logic !!! this is going on
in the UK...... in the UK, rip offs like you described are
somewhat legal....but then we have a Government !!
but..... when we define both our problems ?
it would appear to be the higher archey .... sorry, but
USA or England...we are stuffed !!!!!
