34. I think your points are spot on, as well as,
what we would like to accomplish.

An anitial commetti should be formed as I alone do not know how to determine the criteria, if we choose the CEO in bed with dimson it becomes a polotical issue and that would be counter productive. We want angry concertivites to be part of this. We could not afford to alienate anyone who might be of a mind to join this action.

I also do not believe we should try to cripple the company as they employ many Americans, so the action cannot be viewed as visious, we want fairness thats all, we do not want gouging of our compatriots during ression times, I have no problem with the companies making a fair profit.

But mammoth profits during a time whan most are choosing gas over food in order to stay employed is unacceptable and IMO Treasonious!

I believe that all that is needed is an impact even if in corporate terms it equates to minor losses.

The publicity is the big snowball we want to start rolling IMO.

To get activists discussing the issue. Isnt ripping off the public in a time of War a crime or at the very least should be.

PUBLIC OPINION can move mountains, we as consummers have never focused the laser onto just one target.

I am tired of being quiet and having no way to impact our opressors.

THIS COULD WORK!

WE CAN DO THIS?


It would impact very few in the urban areas choosing not to patronise one brand or outlet.

We have the power if we want it.

Think like an army not an Individual!
