"This article has been updated to reflect that the flagship rally was held in Saint Paul, Minnesota." Thanks for the correction. I read the statement of demands in the article you kindly shared. They can't be accomplished in a day. When does the strike end? bsky.app/profile/did:...

From time to time, I hear about people proposing a general strike here in the United States. Among people you have heard from calling for this, what are the strike demands? In other words, what would happen that would result in the strike ending with a declared victory by the strike organizers?

Based on the formula provided by the US Labor Statistics 2025: On the low side, the average American spends $165/day. If 150 million people participate in a General Strike = $24.75 Billion per day. To put that into perspective: Per Week: $173.25B Per Month: $742.5B It's time to flex our power.

I am sole caregiver for my disabled USMC Vietnam Vet. Caregiver is a tough job but rewarding. I wouldn't have it any other way. Hang in there and blessings of the day to you.
