    Because most people dont even need the money. Only a fraction of people still suffer financially from the pandemic

    We may not all be on the brink of homelessness but theres millions who are and the majority of the country is definitely worse off financially now, all the while the wealthy are actually getting richer. This def calls for some type of mass protest

    If Trump had won reelection, a strike may have happened, as the unions of this country largely back Biden. There were open threats. Right now, they're biding their time and hoping things improve under a new administration.

    because it’s not affecting everyone

    a lot of people still had employment throughout this time, the $600 is just a bonus at this point. they have still been able to pay rent, buy groceries, etc. some even started to make more money

    not saying it’s right, just answering your question as to why US citizens aren’t reacting as whole

    many people have had it extremely hard, but for many other people, nothing has changed, that’s what it really boils down to

    edit: i do agree though, a one time $1200 payment and now a $600 payment is a complete joke. we are an extremely rich country, and our government should be doing a better job of taking care of its citizens that are in a hardship position right now

    This

    The fake news coupled with your subjective algorithmic echo chambers will have you thinking it’s “28 Days Later” outside

    A lot of people are working remote

    A lot of people are scamming/gaming the system because of the opportunity to get unemployment

    A lot of people are in bad shape but it’s relative lol it’s first world bad shape not 3rd world bad shape

    We are an atomized society. The only things that bring us together reliably are sports and entertainment.

    Say it again for the people in the back

    Before Obama’s 8 years in office those two entities untied people from all walks of life seamlessly

    It’s not even remotely accurate now, look at bike political sports has gotten since Colin took his knee!

    How is $600 a “bonus” for people on unemployment when $900 is not even a single mortgage or rent payment

    it was $600 a week on top of what you were already getting from unemployment so that’s an extra 2400 a month on top of whatever you were already getting

  • The labor movement in this country has really been beaten down over the years by deadly force. (see the Ludlow Massacre, Greensboro Massacre, Elaine Massacre,1913 massacre, Rock Springs Massacre, the list goes on and on and I think you see the trend)

    Even though people are hurting it is a huge uphill battle to organize a mass movement of workers.

    Unfortunately I don't see any way that conditions improve other than a mass workers movement so I hope that it happens in our lifetime

    They wouldn't be striking as often as they do if they knew what they were doing. France perpetually striking without really seeing much change.

    People need to eat and can't afford to quit. Simple as that. Proletariat is unable to seize the means, or any power.
