Antiwork

Do you think the average American is capable of participating in an extended strike?

Not job specific. Not company specific. Country wide, every industry, working with your neighbors to gather resources beforehand and everyone pooling resources to smoke out corporate America as a whole. Refusing to work PERIOD, until there are mass changes from all corporate leaders offered. Obviously each industry would need leaders and a plan and actual goals. But under PERFECT circumstances, optimal leadership, do you think the average American could put their fears on hold and just say no to working until better wages, benefits, etc are offered? Even on a smaller scale: organizing an apartment complex to go on rent strike until rent is lowered or a maximum rent cap is set? I feel like fear of homelessness and failure would make enough people bail out that failure would be inevitable.
