I spend a lot of time reading stories on digg, and there are so, so, so many fed up Americans. I have a growing suspicion that we are the silent majority -- I mean, what is Bush's approval rating, 20%?
It's easy to sit at your computer and talk about change; it's a different thing going out and effecting it.
The internet has incredible potential to organize the millions of angry Americans, without the need of a supervising organization. If there were a centralized place where people only talked about change and how to make it happen, and it caught on, well.... then something glorious might happen.
In the meantime, this general strike is a fantastic idea. Spread the word, far and wide.
