A general strike in America? Won't happen and would take weeks before it was felt and even then, it would hurt the average hourly worker the most."

I wish I had paid more attention.  Fox News had on a Mexican honcho the other day, and he said that they picked a day this month and they are all going on strike.  They will not be going to work, and they will not shop, etc, just to show America just how much we need them.

Darn!  I wish I had paid more attention.  I am concerned about the date.

I think it's scheduled for May 5th. which is Cinco De Mayo. It's already celebrated in America because it was a day when they defeated the French in a battle. Imagine that. Someone actually "beat" France. LOL More like they surrendered. :o)

I'm sure that this will be a huge victory celebration for them this year. Along with defeating France they have defeated the US government without a shot being fired.

May first....
Ironic- May Day is the Communist/Marxist/Socialist "labor day".

I still like us using OUR INDEPENDANCE DAY for a serious shutdown.
