Americans largely live paycheck to paycheck, with little to no savings. Without funds, strikes end prematurely due to the threat of starvation and eviction.

Did you not read what I wrote? It doesn’t matter what “time” it is if you don’t have the necessary tools.

Successful strikes have had strike funds. Unfunded strikes fail.
I never said to do nothing. But action for action’s sake without setting the necessary foundation is foolish and counterproductive.
