“No, I change my mind,” Santa fumes. “This is too many basic protections, too soon. Deal’s off! Won’t you think of the presents? The children? The Santa licensing empire?!”

“We’re all committed to kids getting presents,” you remind Santa. “But only some of us are committed to annual pay increases and sanitary working conditions.”

“I’ll leave cookie crumbs wherever I damn well please!” Santa exclaims, pounding the table. He leaves the room, throwing a cookie at your face!

The strike continues, and not enough toys are made. Christmas is cancelled this year. A lot of kids are very, very sad. However, in January a high profile docu-series comes to HBO about the elf rights abuses at the North Pole. The special sparks a long needed global reckoning about the true cost of “free presents.”
