It's time for a General Strike!
Advertisements [?]
The DNC and Kerry would denounce it, but so what? We've been leaving the leadership in their hands too long. Voting doesn't work anymore. It's nullified through media lies at best, outright fraud at worst. Let's shut the fucking country down and see how W and his corporate allies like them apples.

A few unions on board would help, but considering they represent less than 10% of the private sector workforce, we could do it without the spineless labor bureaucrats.

We pick a day and a few cities to rally in. We get enough people in certain worksites on board, then when the designated time comes, everybody walks off the job and to the rally.

Risky? Sure, but it's even riskier to allow the extreme right wing to continue its steady march towards a fascist state. Everybody's saying "whatever it takes" and all that jazz. Let's match rhetoric with action.
