We have the buying power to halt corporate profits if we turn our buying power to small businesses. This includes the small businesses around the protest sites. If you have no money to spend in the businesses, offer to take out garbage, clean floors and bathrooms, stock, etc. in exchange for using their facilities. We want to show the little guy, that we are behind them. Rather than use McDonald's bathroom, support the locals in anyway you can. Be the change you want to see.
No one will go for free trade in this manner at least. a backrub for a burger won't pay the bills.
Very good idea. Engage in FREE TRADE to demonstrate your preferences. Boycott big businesses that run profits on govt power!
