I question if the ruling class has broken the system enough that this doesn't work...

Old days: People stop working. Company stops making money. (A|B) Company hires pinkertons to kill off the opposition | Company concedes and gives better working conditions.

Today?: People stop working. Companies beg government to give them money because they're too big to fail. Individuals lose their livelihood/homes/next meal long before company has a deep financial impact.

Today: people automate out many low level processes and offshore the rest to India / Mexico City / PI
