Not all actors want the strike.

Very clear and to the point, as well as a position that makes a hell of a lot of sense.

Yep. They still adamantly disagree with the proposal being put in front of them, but they are also looking at what a strike could do. California still hasn't recovered from the last one.

One thing that I noticed is that several of these people were very supportive of the Writer's Strike, so the fact that they aren't pushing a strike for their own guild when they've been without a contract for six months says a lot.

I like that they actually looked beyond themselves. Most of the names on that list can afford to not work for a while, but they understand what it could mean to the people and industries that depend on their money in a bad economy.

It also puts the producers on notice about what might happen 3 years down the road.
