    The trick with that is there needs to be significant financial backing to keep people fed even during a short strike.

      You’re confusing a want with a need. Resistance doesn’t come without risk. The longer we wait the more we have to risk. Many are already going hungry and more will join them November 1st. If you wait for them to be fed before striking you’ll never start.

        I’m saying that is why a lot of people won’t strike. “I have kids to feed today” will always beat “this will create a better world someday”.
