So it’s a day in January; two days in February; three in March, etc. Its complicated, possibly too complicated for the typical worker, but it would give ramping escalation and allow for negotiation in process. the problem remains the same: getting the general public to heed a strike. Short of people dying by hundreds of thousands, they don’t seem motivated.

The people that were fine with the lockdowns and restrictions were not represented in the debate because they were sheltering in place at home trying to keep more people from dying to the virus.
