Suggest use Gandhi's technique. Call a "demand strike" the way Gandhi did against the textile industry of England with home spun.
Let the Grinch steal Xmas. Start a demand strike by buying only survival items. Hold off on all other purchases including new homes, cars, toys, even appliances that are not necessary replacements such as refrigerators.
Learn from our elders how they got by during the great depression and show Wall Street once and for all that the economy is demand driven not supply driven. Supply is a response to demand not the reverse as asserted by Reagonomics.
I agree with you completely. I say a demand strike for the whole year of 2012 and let TPTB know this was OWS-driven. This would show that we are a voice to be heard.
