  • General strike in the US seems like less of an impossibility year by year

    Just restating some of the greatest hits:

    1. Universal healthcare

    2. Universal education through university level or trade school

    3. At least a month pto annually

    4. Parental leave for births

    5. Guaranteed sick leave

    6. 32hr new full time threshold before overtime

    7. Only public, equal funds for elections, no PACs/dark money/donations, no lobbyist bribes

    8. Any elected official over a certain level cannot engage in trading of individual stocks or own businesses, dump it all in an index fund or hand off management to someone else they cannot contact without a mediator and recording, immediate expulsion & no longer able to hold office when found in violation

    9. No billionaires/oligarchs, anyone with earnings and assets over a billion should be taxed at 100% and assets redistributed

    Edit: May 1st 2028 looks like a good target thanks to the UAW https://www.thenation.com/article/activism/general-strike-2028-unions-labor-movement/
