There were 33 large-scale strikes in the United States last year, the highest number in 23 years since 2000. This is believed to be due to widespread calls for wage increases from people whose lives are under pressure due to high prices.

Last year, labor unions including American screenwriters and actors who appear in movies and television went on a large- scale strike to demand higher pay. According to the Ministry of Labor, over 450,000 workers participated in strikes last year. Inflation in the U.S. is on the decline, but prices for essential items such as housing, transportation, and food continue to rise.
