1. Do not underestimate the power and leverage of your consumer dollars.

Votes are only usable every 2-4 years. Consumer dollars have power 24/7-365. The spending boycott needs to go on long into Spring and Sumner and as long as the orange convict is in office. Make MAGA spend their money on crap.

New trend in Colorado is to add credit card transaction fees to the consumers check out price and giving a lower price for cash. The consumer is now handing money directly to the banks when using a credit card.

All it takes for a spending boycott to be successful is participation.

2. The trend towards a cashless society needs to be stopped.

Merchant fees being passed down to the consumer, businesses that refuse to accept cash even though it's legal tender.
Takes effort to use cash, I try to have $100 in my wallet for everyday use. Replenish as needed.
Economic boycotts work.
Stop spending for anything but essentials.

3. Boycotts Work!

Don't listen to lies to the contrary!
