"But why don't Americans protest? All they do is sit back and take it up the ass!" I hear every European crying as they ignore this right alongside all the other protests.
If you think protests are enough to fix this you're dreaming.
First, its not just a protest, its a general strike, countless businesses have had to close because of it. Secondly, you say that as if Iran isn't working. Why is it that whenever there's a protest in the US people try to minimize it?
