In Britain we have a general strike, over 2 million workers waled off ther jobs today sending a message that class warfare by the rich is not going to go unanswered. Of course the government started blaming the unions and their 'gold plated pensions', a bunch of bullshit we hear here as the conservatives and their rich wealthy buddies keep bashing public sector workers. I really think we need a nationwide general strke in this country, bring the whole country to a stop for two days or more. Then if the government i paying attention, they will start acting like they represent the people, not the rich. If a general strike comes, I will pick up a sign and join the others in the streets. For now I can only say I will not feel sorry for those who suffer some inconvenience from such a strike. Maybe they will wake up and realize that democracy is something you participate in, not just watch on TV.

I just saw some more pictures of the belongings the city of New York so graciously 'returned' to the occupy people.. please note the laptop computers, all returned but smashed into electronic junk...such are the actions of the thugs of the police state. When civil authorities allow such conduct, such as the destruction of the people's library and the tents and personal belongs of citizens of this country and the theft and destruction of other property in their campaign f terror against those who dare question their 'authority' it is begging for a revolution. Maybe when it happens we can let history repeat itself, and bring back the guillotine... there are quite a few political figures that I'd like to see face that and watch the heads roll into the gutter..
