Occupy Oakland makes plans for citywide general strike

Occupy Oakland makes plans for citywide general strike - San Jose Mercury News

This takes Occupy to a new level, if a strike is organised and actually, goes ahead on 2nd of November. They move on from being happy, stoned, campers, singing protest songs, to a much more political movement. They leave themselves open for much more organised groups, with their own agendas. to move in and use Occupy for their own reasons.
The big problem with Occupy is that there is no recognised leadership nor is there any direction. It is all very ad hoc. An announcement goes out, on the internet, then people just turn up, at the appointed time and place. There is no common goal, other than to change the system. Absolutely no alternatives to the current system have been put forward. Continual change, for the sake of change, is merely Leon Trotsky 101 and any of the apparent or wanna be, leading lights, who have appeared above the fray, certainly have a history of organising labour and leading them down the road of anarchy. Once they have done so, they then move on to the next cause. They are the butterflies of chaos, flitting from one protest to the next one and really changing nothing at all.
