@petergleick Not the right tool for the job, even if we had it, and we don't.
"To succeed, a strike must have one concrete goal. Reformatting the entire political system to be more robust and fair is a long and complex process. You can’t ask people to disrupt their lives for months — if not years — it would take to complete such overhaul. If you instead call a strike with the simple goal of getting a specific leader in power, all you get in the end is a new dictator."
@petergleick Gonna leave this here for any future defenders of Chris Hedges, who worked for RT side by side with Ed Martin.
Already there. Unfortunately, many have to work at crap, underpaid jobs just to survive. To afford groceries. They have endure horrible management that demands profit.
For those who say it can't be done or can't work, ask the NDP
