I was talking specifically about the USA. Unless something dramatic changes, there will not be a general strike.

Even when unemployment rises to ~15%





Yes, I'm well aware, I mentioned the US not by name but by other properties in my earlier comments... I think once a country moves into authoritarianism there isn't much left but violence to achieve anything. General strikes and unions won't matter much once the military gets deployed against civilians, and you guys are already beyond that point so. GLHF and I hope things don't get too messy and you're welcome to re-join the modern world once you've cleaned the house.
