A general strike? You're asking for people to cooperate in a mass prisoner dilemma on a societal scale. Never going to happen with the complete lack of labor organization in the US.

General strikes occur are strange occurences. The few examples such as France in 1968, or the Soviet Union in 1991, or the Praque Spring in 1968 occurred for reasons more akin to "mass social unrest/dissatisfaction" than organized labor activity.
