A grassroots organization is encouraging U.S. residents not to spend any money Friday as an act of “economic resistance” to protest what the group’s founder sees as the malign influence of billionaires, big corporations and both major political parties on the lives of working Americans.
Meh. I wasn’t going to shop anyway but this won’t accomplish much. Granted, I don’t even think regular protests will do the trick. Do make long term strives towards weaning off the bad stuff, though. It won’t make a statement, but the only statements that’ll be taken seriously are the ones that land you in a NYC courthouse wearing an unnecessary bullet proof vest.
