Small Businesses Should Go On Strike - Shut Down the Whole Economy to Prove a Point

Posted: Jan 03, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

It's really unfortunate that we are willing to elect a community protest organizer to an important government position, or shell out more taxpayer dollars to groups that march in the streets, go on strike in the middle of a recession, or cause a direct disruption in our society and civilization.

Nevertheless, if that's the new rules that we are dealing with, and that's how we are to get things done, then perhaps it's time that we take this to the next level. Perhaps it's time that the small business people who are getting the shaft, having their taxes increased, providing 70% of the jobs in our economy, and busting their butt to make it all happen - take a stand.

All the small businesses in the United States of America should go on strike, lay everyone off, close their businesses and go home, and get some sleep for the next week. They should pay no bills, accept no deliveries, allow for no customer service, sell no products, and then we can ask our politicians; how do you like us now?

You see, until now the small business folks have been holding up and keeping the economy going, while the large corporations collect money from the government for large contracts, all paid with taxpayer money and stimulus dollars. What we really need is to do what works. And even though it goes against the grain, and everything that small business people believe in, we have our current administration that only listens to one thing; Whiners and Complainers, Whistle-Blowers and Race-Baiters, Media Bytes and Protestors (in my opinion).

It seems that in this new way of doing things - squeaky wheel gets the oil - and thus, it's time to show just how loud the small business community can be if push comes to shove. We could shut down this economy overnight, and we could crash all the world economies simply by stopping.

You don't think so?

I know it for a fact.

Indeed, it's time that the small business community got tough.

We built this country.

    Too often the Western World assumes that the best answers must come from them. However, having worked in Turkey where the traditional competitive model is not followed so rigidly it is interesting to examine what enables similar businesses to co-exist together and to support each other. This article also gives a totally differnet slant on the media generated view of Islam in the west.

    The mobile elbow results from using the mobile for long hours. Called the 'cubital tunnel syndrome', it is also called cell phone elbow'. The problem occurs when the ulnar nerve, which runs across the elbow, down to the ring and little fingers, gets over-stretched and blood supply is restricted, sparked by holding a phone to the ear for long periods.

    The key reason why some firms thrive while some implode during an financial recession is still a puzzle to many people business-owning business owners. Some wrongly assume that all businesses should suffer via recessionary cycles. But the truth is that some companies are usually essentially recession-proof, and it is not necessarily because they are much larger, better known, or a lot more generously capitalized.
