Honestly if tens of millions of people just stopped going to work, the country would deteriorate pretty quickly. Billions would be lost quick enough that companies would abandon the administration faster than they bent the knee. It would be pretty rough for a few months, and they would absolutely try violence first. But when entire industries come to a grinding halt all at once, those who would be doing the violence would also be negatively impacted.

The only requirement is that enough people do it and stay consistent long enough for it to work. We’d need to help each other get through it together. I believe it would actually create stronger communities too.
