General strike is still legal and more efficient than not paying taxes which will land you in jail. Withhold the means of production long enough and Trump might just fall out a window.
Since when has that ever mattered? Remember, the first unions and labor strikes weren’t legal but that didn’t stop them. They didn’t become legal until we forced the State to meet us on equal terms.
And quick reminder that the IWW will help anyone (including you, dear reader) unionize their job, no matter what it is, and even if you can only get one or two others on board with you!
Its crazy to me that its incredibly hard to convince Americans not to go to work.
Do they think the police are going to evicted 1/3 of the population? (Assuming we were wildly successful)
Do they think the government wont recognize how important it will be to stabilize the workforce and offer relief, lest risk more strikes?
Do they think, myself, your neighbor, wont empty my pantry so you can be fed another day and we can carry on?
The only problem is you thinking you need to sit it out. Its the exact opposite, if you cant afford to strike youre the one who needs to fight. Youre the one who is getting fucked the hardest.
Yes, we need to meet a threshold to where we cant be ignored. No its not easy, but look at the alternatives. Carryon like this until we are actual slaves to disgusting GOP masters (Id rather be dead) spit. Open war against the world’s most advanced military?
No, cut off the corporations and make them answer to you. After all, they are you.
To me it’s a no brainer and the last option before armed revolution. As JFK once said, “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.”
that’s the bullshit. The government, like any organization, is utterly dependent in financial input. Without it, they fall over. Withholding taxes is the strongest move that protesters can make.
As of currently the way the government works is everything is paid for by printing money and the government taking out loans. It claws some money back with taxes but they haven’t covered the government since I have been alive.

“still legal”
Since when has that ever mattered? Remember, the first unions and labor strikes weren’t legal but that didn’t stop them. They didn’t become legal until we forced the State to meet us on equal terms.
Also, the Constitution doesn’t matter anymore and crime is legal

I’m sorry but that’s bullshit.

A government that run its own currency does not necessarily need taxes to sustain itself.
oh shit, you’re right. i hadn’t thought of that.
