    The quiet quitting of ATC got the attention of the senate and congress.

    Seems that Americans should just go on strike for like … three days.

    Three days of “WhAT’s An EcONoMy ?” would get some attention.

    Three days of no starbucks. No flight attendants. No UBERS. No amazon deliveries. No teachers. No grocery stores. No gas stations. No “admins”. No truck drivers.

    Seems like three days of sit down and let them do it themselves would work.

      It would be just easier, in an event of shutdown, to freeze all the assets of all members of Congress and Senate. You’ll see how fast they’ll reach an agreement when it’s their money on the table and not someone else’s.

        Pay all federal employees from the personal money of the current administration if they fuck up something like the federal budget. 💡
