While I appreciate the symbolism, the scheduled time is when most people outside of government have to work, while most people in government do not.
So we chose a time least convenient to protestors, to impress the people that aren't even there.
It has to be called a 'protest' because general strikes are outlawed. The idea is a show of force to demonstrate the impact the protest could have if it continued. It isn't a party, a presentation, or a performance. It is the decision to exert the economic influence of not working (but not striking for legal reasons).
Well, I'll be damned.
Enjoy your 5th job later.
People need to eat now
Do they not need to eat after sitting out protests?
If some people go to protests they won't be able to afford food. People who say these things have never lived hand to mouth to the extreme.
Lol! Keep dreaming.
Dreaming? Of what? Barley making enough to get by?
