Civil disobedience does get results. That's why it can be a good tactic.

  Does striking count as civil disobedience? This is essentially an employment dispute.

    Most uses of martial law in the United States were against striking workers, including in California, so at least the government sees it as civil disobedience. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_law_in_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_law_in_the_United_Stat...

    Meh, you can quibble over terms, but I'd be inclined to count it. Yes, they committed a civil tort instead of a criminal offense, but they did so against an agent of the state.
