CR # 2

Leaders of a miners' union on strike against Coalco
are contemplating additional measures to pressure the
company to accept the union's contract proposal. The
union leaders are considering as their principal new
tactic a consumer boycott against Gasco gas stations,
which are owned by Energy Incorporated, the same
corporation that owns Coalco.

The answer to which of the following questions is
LEAST directly relevant to the union leaders'
consideration of whether attempting a boycott of
Gasco will lead to acceptance of their contract
proposal?

(A) Would revenue losses by Gasco seriously affect
Energy Incorporated?
(B) Can current Gasco customers easily obtain
gasoline elsewhere?
(C) Have other miners' unions won contracts similar
to the one proposed by this union?
(D) Have other unions that have employed a similar
tactic achieved their goals with it?
(E) Do other corporations that own coal companies
also own gas stations?
