..if there was an organized boycot against, say, Mattel Toys...it wouldn't even have to be directed at a war-related enterprise...that could hurt and scare them...even if to counter the effect a group decided to buy up the slack so Mattel lost nothing...it still gets these people into areas they'd rather not go...and we aren't trying to break the backs of corporations...we simply want to get them to GET OUT of war making and meddling in government...that's all.

They should fear us consumers more than they do...it's as if they are the new Luis XVI and we are the French poor...we're being dominated in very UN-democratic ways by Dukes and Lords of finance and industry who've merely co-opted whatever parliament we thought we had...to such a point that soon we won't even be able to democratically oppose them...and no one wants any kind of violent revolution...but something has to change...Americans are being squeezed at home and we're fanning the flames of international hatred and destablization...just because people are taking it for now, doesn't mean they will continue to do so...like the Muslims who took and took until they got so desperate and deprived of any means to seriously challenge their oppressors that they took to blowing up children and themselves...people may one day be driven insane and retaliate in ways that are unthinkable now.

We hold the power over corporations in our pockets...one dollar at a time. When an entire corporation goes broke because of a three cent rise in gas prices...you know they are built on nothing very solid...they are ALL overextended in their mad rush to make and make and make more and more money...look at the Time/Warner AOL merger..one great big fiasco no one wants to talk about...it was NEVER about making a serious company but making an enormous fast buck...and as soon as that fast buck wasn't forthcoming, this midget of a "giant" disolved.

Let them go back to doing business...get them OUT of government where they buy whatever laws they think will benefit them for the short term...while harming families forever! It's so simple it hurts.
