Poll question: Under what circumstances would you cross a picket line?

Just getting the feel from DU.

As for me -- I wouldn't die or let someone else die to honor a strike. Beyond that, I won't cross. (And I'm using "cross a picket line" more figuratively than literally here -- knowingly buying Tyson products during the strike/lockout a few years ago would count.)

Edited to add: If I truly depended on my income from a day's work in order to survive (eat, not be homeless) and/or I felt that not showing up would literally put me on the streets, I might cross. It would suck.
