I am going to the final debate championship and have prepared to support "Public Transit workers should not be permitted to strike".
The problem is I need more than the simple obvious, that public transit strikes, especially ones on short notice and in densely populated cities, cripples the city and affects way too many people. There should be more concrete facts about why they should not be allowed to strike, just like police officers and firemen.

If you do not allow them to strike then you ultimately do not allow them to defend their rights as workers, and if the Government and the law are unwilling or unable to defend their rights (which will inevitably happen at some point) then their rights will not be defended and those rights will not exist.
Logically people should never strike, because in a properly run society there should never be a legitimate reason to strike. The laws of the land should make clear the duties and responsibilities of both parties, and if one side has a legitimate greviance then it will be upheld by the law.
But of course things are never that simple.
