General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Is this the time for a nationwide General Strike, check in if you agree [View all]RetroGamer1971
(177 posts)Yes! a General strike to tell the corporate, and political overlords that we deserve a living wage. There is enough money to go around to keep the rich people rich, but still help those in need. Politicians with their own money agendas need to be told hands off as well. Our public funds are NOT a personal GIMME trough for pet projects. We hace been fighting this kind of corruption in Glendale for years. The city took our tax dollars and built a hockey and baseball stadium. It is bankrupting the city. Services are being slashed, people are being laid off, and libraries will likely close. ENOUGH is ENOUGH!! AK
