    It’s very easy to say but you need to understand there are no labor protections in the US. Any protest during work hours result in termination.

      Then get fired, all of you.

      A company can’t fire all their employees, just go all protest

        They only have to fire a few and the rest will fall in line quickly. This is why retail workers don’t have unions.

        Everyone is stuck in the consumer/labor loop. One missed check is all it takes to send you to the poverty hole. Even more challenging if you have kids.

        I support general strike. But I understand why people aren’t ready to do it yet. Until starving is less scary than the alternative, it’s going to be hard for them to risk that.
