America is a dog eat dog society, there will be no mass work stoppage.
They've conditioned us to turn on each other and treat each other like trash. Where one person will quit their job in protest, you'll have shills and finks lining up to take his job.
The only way a work stoppage occurs is if the SHTF.

If that happened you would probably all die, no food, no shop workers, milk etc. I bet 90% of the USA couldn't fend for themselves.

I'm sure jobs are not easy to find in the Uk EU too. I also ask this as hypothetical. not as fact. let us say everyone was on board

Crabs in a barrel my friend.

I don't understand your premise.
Just how would such a thing "defeat" the PTB? They are wealthy beyond belief. How would 2 weeks of work stoppage have any meaningful effect on them; especially since all of their competitors (I do believe they are a bunch of greedy bastards that compete with each other.) are in the same boat?
They have enough resources to survive any storm, whilst the poor workers are surviving only paycheck to paycheck. I think you should fill out your premise a bit so that we can understand better how you think this would work.
In my personal opinion a short term crisis would accomplish nothing. The PTB has to be stripped of its power, commerce, bit by bit over time -- buy local, buy organic, buy with a conscience, but still work so that you can buy and live -- just wean yourself off of what the big guy is selling you -- which is a load of crap.
