Why don't all those activists who work for american software companies with military contracts go on strike - you know who you are!Or are you agitating from the inside (irony!) Most of the people pontificating about mass action work for US multinationals who support the war effort - why not stop paying lip service and do something meaningful. Go on strike - resign, stop feathering your own nests on Uncle Sam's money. |

They could introduce policies to only get involved in projects that are beneficial to humankind.
What a fantastic idea.Me and my friend have decided to quit our jobs at motorola and set up a company of our own.Hopefully the IDA will give us the required 1 billion capital needed.I just about think I've heard it all by this stage.
Even Michael Dell started small.
The answer is to go on strike, that is how the war machine can be stopped. In Shannon every encouragement should be given to workers to go on strike and to boycott the US Warplanes.
The US Army is reliant on the labour of the working class. Without the workng Class the Bush and Blair will be unable to go to war.
The answer is not to "establish" small businesses in opposition to the large US firms. That is coming from a petty-bourgeois point-of-view, wouldn't surprise me if you support Greens, Sinn Féin or Labour. What is so different between a large capitalist firm and a small capitalist firm. Both rely on the exploitation of workers to make profit! The way to beat capitalism is to take over the industries, not to 'compete' with them.
STRIKES AND INDUSTRIAL ACTION IS THE WAY FORWARD!
i have never heard anything so stupid.. go on strike to protest against america!!! oh my god, the idea is so so so idiotic it beggars belief. i dont think it needs any more comment
