votestrike.org — General Strike! No school, no work, no shopping. Not for today. Not for this week. Not until we've won!The only way to stop those who would bleed our nation dry, dismantle our constitution, and dissolve our national sovereignty is to say I will not work for you, buy from you, fight for you, or die for you, until the criminals are gone...

t3hbagel has given up and doesn't care so he wants us all to.During the 60's he would have been telling MLK Jr. to just "Give it up" and "strikes and boycotts don't mean anything, Martin!"

HASN'T the goverment run unchecked and HAVEN'T they ben getting away with whatever they please at our expense?The founding fathers formed a new country because England got tyrannical, they didn't protest or try to "change" England, because they'd be killed or "kept down by the man". This s**t is scary. That's my point. I know it's fun to rally around a cause, but what good has said rallying done lately? It's dismissed by the media, or when it IS covered, it's portrayed (or portrays itself) as a bunch of losers and nutjobs. Public opinion is being controlled. Opinions on Digg are NOT the general consensus of the American people.To answer your question: No, I do not feel like I have any power to change things for the better in this country. Why should I? In order to create real change, we'd need at least 50 million people rallying behind the "cause". Good luck with that.

Giving up isn't the answer, but an asinine strike and 14 people take part in isn't either.

Herk - The guy 2 above you was being sarcastic. He did a pretty good job.

"So then none of you can tell us just one freedom that you have lost. "Are you really that willfully ignorant or just trolling for squirrel bait again.Actually, nobody wants to interact with you. No one in their right mind desires to socialize with such a bitter, hateful person, except your own kind. Why should we bother? only to get called all sorts of ridiculous names and moronic stereotypes. It's not like you are the least bit sincere.

He's right...I haven't lost any freedoms personally.In the 60's Herkimer would be telling all his white friends "WHAT FREEDOMS HAVE YOU LOST?! WHY ARE YOU MARCHING IN THE STREETS? THE GOVERNMENT KNOWS BEST!"

Any strike ( and there was none so far) would be a miserable failure and hurt only those that strike themselves...
