Why would they not be able to ignore this? They're already beating their own country's economy with a stick. Something I think a lot of foreigners don't understand is that the US Federal Government doesn't own the US Industry, they police it.

Whats going to happen? They're going to lose like 0.25% tax revenue for the year and run out of funding for all the programs they run? OHWAIT, they're already not funding those programs.

Yeah, hold up a sign outside of a state capital, sign up to volunteer with the DNC or with Bernie Sanders' organization, or print out some flyers for local Union organization steps and legal protections to put up at high traffic areas like rest stops and parks.

Sounds good. Let’s get the word out and organize this.
