Here's a rundown of some of the largest strikes taking place in the U.S. today. 75,000 Kaiser Permanente workers walk off the jobPolitical Cartoons View All 1199 ImagesIn the health care sector, a major strike kicked off this week — with some 75,000 Kaiser Permanente workers walking off the job Wednesday in multiple states. Doctors are also not participating in the strike, and Kaiser said it was bringing in thousands of temporary workers. After five months on the picket lines, the writers strike was declared over after their union approved a contract agreement with studios last week. During the staggered strikes, workers have also called for solidarity and a boycott of hotels in the Los Angeles area.

Bitcoin enthusiasts are waiting to see if if the bitcoin experiment will succeed, or tragically implode. Right after I hopped out the back of a pickup in El Zonte, El Salvador, I recognized I wasn't in an ordinary beach town. The bitcoin movement in El Salvador began in El Zonte when a California surfer named Mike Peterson received an anonymous $100,000+ bitcoin donation for the town's residents. For bitcoin's true believers, there's a ton riding on the El Salvador experiment. El Salvador's bitcoin experiment may not work, it could implode, but there's a chance it succeeds, and that makes it worth trying.
