PATCO members (Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization)

went on strike and were told to be back at their jobs in 48 hours

or the government would assume the striking controllers had quit.

Congress in 1947 passed a law forbidding strikes by Government employees. Reagan read aloud the non-strike oath that each air controller, and indeed any federal employee, must sign upon hiring. Reagan further stated the strikers are in violation of the law, and if they do not report for work within 48 hours, they have forfeited their jobs and will be terminated. Many of the PACO strike members did not return back to work and as a result were fired.

When the average total cost is at its minimum is it greater than marginal cost?

When the average total cost (ATC) is at its minimum, it is equal to the marginal cost (MC). This is because, at this point, the cost of producing one more unit (MC) is neither pulling the average cost up nor down. If MC were greater than ATC, it would increase the ATC, and if MC were less than ATC, it would decrease the ATC. Therefore, at the minimum point of ATC, MC and ATC are equal.
