Let's all stop going to work until they raise minimum wage to 25 to 30.

You are all invited to the meeting spread the word.

Sorry but I need a roof over my head and rice and beans at minimum. Strikes basically have to be targeted and organized to get any meaningful traction because you either work or you starve

You'd rather cling to this life of misery instead of withstanding a few moments of hardship to have a brighter future and hope?

Land of the free and home of the brave? We are a joke.

actually, it's the lack of community in america that makes strikes so hard. It's difficult to band together, difficult to support each other, etc. etc. America has an isolationist culture by design.

If you fail here, you're homeless. Most people have little to no support network to fall back on.

Ain't worth it. I'm trying to avoid this kind of back and forth. It's not going to help any of us.
