Why you should skip work and refuse to buy anything tomorrow ...
May 1
A General Strike is the most effective way to pressure the government to change
Protracted General Strikes have revolutionary potential. They can bring down governments and pave the way to for libertarian communism
Everyone else on the planet is doing it, and has been doing so since 1886, when the U.S. executed 4 anarchists on trumped up charges of throwing a bomb in Haymarket Square, during protests to establish the 8-hour work day in the U.S

The braking system dates back to civil war times. The unions lobbied for the train company to upgrade to newer systems brought in in the 90's.
But...profits. The train company said it couldn't afford the upgrades. Despite shareholder's profits being through the roof.
Even the Obama administration sided with the owners, not the unions.
If this sounds familiar, it's because it is. This could happen in the UK. Because privately owned companies value profit over safety. It's what the RMT are currently fighting for.
Now do you get it?
