What would be a good demand for a general strike?

Do you think the idea of a once a month general strike is Impractical or impossible? What about once a quarter?
@Npars01 @raven667 @futurebird
I like the idea of trying everything non-violently.

Why can't the kids meet and contribute to the general good? Why can't you and other adults use this monthly general strike day to raise their awareness of their roles as citizens in a democratic society?

Microsoft has patch Tuesdays. Why can't we have No Kings Mondays? The second Monday of every month there's a general strike. People in favor of the strike meet to discuss politics, work on local projects like cleaning and repairing homes, stream cleanup, etc.
You may say that I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one. (I hope.)

What should we do instead of general strikes and boycotts?
@raven667 @futurebird @Npars01
I'm thinking a general strike can be a one-day affair. It should not have to cause trauma to workers. I don't know is it ridiculous to imagine one day a month we shut down the economy?

Makes sense. Who is organizing? Big labor? These one and done protests are unlikely to move the needle...
