“Occupy Cities” calling for a “General Strike” <br />Asking that citizens engage in nothing taxable <br />To send a message to the 1% they won’t like <br />To let them know that “Greed is off the table” <br /> <br />ROTMS <br /> <br />“Why will a General Strike work? <br />Simple: <br />It attacks the government in a lawful, peaceful manner in the one way they cannot counteract: <br />It cuts off their funding! <br />You can't tax what doesn't happen, basically. This is the people's way to peacefully withdraw consent to being governed. <br />You buy nothing, you perform no work, you do nothing that is taxable.”<br /><br />Ray Lucero<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hit-em-where-it-hurts/
