29. I wish I could find my link to a story about a nation wide strike
in the Netherlands(?). Once one group declared a strike, the entire country went on strike, iirc. They didn't want the government or the private industry to get too complacent. The people knew their power was in numbers shutting the country down. Everyone sacrificed so that everyone could keep their bargaining power.
