I was suggesting this very thing to people several months ago. They looked at me oddly when I suggested it. Of course, they came up with plenty of excuses as to why it wasn't possible. If a large enough percentage of people went on strike even for a day, a day's pay may be lost, but if enough people were involved no one would be fired. It had occurred to me that a national or worldwide strike might be the only way to get the attention of those who don't realize the sad state of affairs in the world or don't want to realize it. In any case, I'll be on strike. I disabled and only work part, part time, but I can sit around and do nothing at all and encourage others to do the same. What a grand idea!

Well, I'm on strike and will say a few words. I think we need more than a day on strike, we need to take a page from Europe and have a WEEK of strike. It would appear to me that very few were on strike today and that doesn't surprise me. We need to work or we'll lose our jobs. What makes you think you're not going to lose your job anyway, or be asked to give up some of that BIG salary you're making? Why can't we all work for the CIA and then we don't have to worry about our money. Just ask Mr. Karzai's brother. Does anyone believe that government is anything but corrupt? It would have been nice to see the World Series might have been postponed by the players today to show support of a National Strike Day but then what planet am I living on? Too much money involved and after all, this is America and we love our money. Well, enough from me, I'm on strike and have said all I can say while on strike. Come on truthseekers, speak up for yourself, even if you are on strike. After all, Kathy was nice enough to write before she went on strike, a little support?
