Occupy participants If you really want to make an impact you have to hit the big guys in their pocket. Plan a boycott of a major franchise, bank, store, transportation, etc. so that it has an economic impact on the Wall Street Bankers. Remember the Montogomery Bus Boycott in 1955 had a tremendous impact because people made a sacrifice and commitment to stop riding the buses until there was a change. You have to do something that has a purpose to make a change, not just stand there!
Agreed. I think some of the younger people don't realize the power of a widespread boycott and a lot of the older ones have forgot. I started my boycotts a few years back. I'm trying to pass the word.
