Over 2 years away? What will that even do?

This is always what bothered me about being American.

We protest on convenient days because most people can't be bothered on work days.

Without work, we lose our job. Without job, no healthcare or house or food or any kind of assistance. No unions to really speak of and no safety net. System has us by the balls.

They say 36 hours without food causes total upheaval, it seems like that is what will be necessary for an acute change.
