Strike today

I like Japan. People don’t disturb the country when they call a strike. Today is a strike in India. Bloody, everything is coming to a standstill. This is worse than a Shiv Sena strike. The entire left party is calling this strike, and basically, they are calling for banks, airports, schools, and even hospitals to be closed down. They are actually forcing the country to come to a standstill and nothing is allowed to function. The strike is basically called against privatization, but they are forcing everyone into it, and therefore there is no point. The government knows that since the left forced everyone into it, the entire country may not be against privatization. There may be remote villages where the strike has reached, but the message has not.
I don’t see the point. Fine, you managed to close down the country and say that you were against privatization, but “you” here is just the left, and not the entire country. If all the parties involved would have just said they were against privatization, and the reasons for this in the parliament, the country would not need to lose crores of money.
This is another issue. Many people are office goers at private organizations. They will all lose a day’s salary. If only they would strike by going to work, but by donating the money elsewhere, it would be so fruitful.
That’s why I like Japan, they protest by wearing ribbons, only one shoe, or going to work with their ties tied to their back. That reminds me, screw this post, I have to go study, and I also have thought of ten ways not to tie your tie.
