Reply #47: We act like we have no power

[adigal]

but we do. We just have to stop buying things we don't need. We have to grow our own food more, not buy a TV for each room, not stand on line for the "new" I-pad, not all need a new I-phone every time one comes out, not shop at WalMart or other chains. Don't shop at all unless you really need something.

If we would all do these things, the corporations would get the message pretty damn quickly. And maybe pay some more attention to us.
