That's fucking brilliant.
I tend to agree with you that a general strike isn't all that smart... If they're going to strike it should be targeted at federal agencies, the banking/wall street companies, and some big corporations.

I also find the entire camping out on wall street etc not all that brilliant either. They should be camped out at the congressmen/senator offices, congress etc. Change will come about when their actions put pressure on the politicians in a more direct manner.

Wall street and large corporations won't change what they're doing on their own. It has to be "forced" upon them by laws.

The protesters should be giddy right now though.. One more wall street company going belly up because of their brilliant risky investments and it's looking like it may have stolen investor cash.
