Mini-Me: General Strike USA a Meme Now

In combination, the brutality and obliviousness of the Chicago and Oakland police departments, no doubt egged on by nakedly amoral “leaders” such as Rahm Emmanuel and his Oakland counterpart, have moved portions of the Occupy movement toward contemplating a General Strike.

The Occupy Electoral Reform elements will do what they can to keep the General Strike in reserve for 16 February and thereafter – the only thing actually worth dying for at this point is Electoral Reform, everything else is a nit.

In our judgment, absent some extraordinary leadership from the sitting politicians in the Executive and Legislative branches, the USA will see a General Strike in February.
