Are they being selfish?

here in my city, Curitiba, the workers of public transportation entered a strike. The daily commute system that transports more than 1 million passagers dailey was completley stopped. Here in Brazil, a politics man, who goes to his work place twice a week and doesn't even have studies, wins R$13,500 a month and also gets benefits and also gets a 13th salary. That is about US$7,000. A bus worker who works almost 12 hours a day and also on weekend gets R$1,500 a month with very small beneftits. That's about US$750 a month to pay for their home, their food and their life. People are mad here because the workers are on strike and they can't commute to their jobs but I think they are right. It is a drastic measure but I hope they get what they want, THEY DESERVE IT! Curitiba has the best public transportation system in the world but pays spare change to their hard workers.
