A grassroots organization is encouraging U.S. residents not to spend any money Friday as an act of “economic resistance” to protest what the group’s founder sees as the malign influence of billionaires, big corporations and both major political parties on the lives of working Americans.
Demonstration of organization. If they see a one day dip in the numbers–even if it’s deferred spending to the very next day–then it implies there’s a large number of people who are pissed off and ready to be organized.
Bottom up organizing has to start somewhere.
