I thought they made an error and acted way too soon to call for a general strike. First missing a days pay hurts most of us living week to week. So we won't be doing it very often. I just don't think we are big enough at this time to call a general strike. Even the unions refused to call a general strike over Wisconsin. That should have told us that they can't just call strike.
I think maybe they should call it off rather than do it show that we have no hand. Just announce that there was not enough national support and it has been postponed to an unscheduled date.
