Just as soon as someone does all of the necessary planning. Strikes go on for a long time. There needs to be infrastructure in place for helping people meet their needs during a strike.

Untill that infrastructure is in place, a general strike will never succeed because people will need money to food, medication, sanitary products, etc.
