> You say "partially"; if you were to draw up a pie graph of "Not allowed to strike" versus "Paid absolute dogshit" what do you think the sizes of those respective sectors would be?

Ok, this kind of question is just sealioning. What I'll say is this: I don't see how you bargain with an employer who knows that you are, when all's said and done, legally obligated to come into work and do your job. The one chip you have left to play is to quit, and these jobs don't pay enough to make quitting a feasible option for most people, especially since health care is tied to employment.
