Spending Strike, Starve The Corporate Beast (corrected link)

“The Trump regime can be resisted through civic courage, legal challenge, and organization. But it can also be starved—one deliberate, withheld dollar at a time.”

“Economic warfare is the only thing the oligarchs, the business community, will understand and act on. Call it a Quiet General Strike (Quiet Quitting). ... Stop spending money except on essentials [and local businesses]. Quit feeding the corporate beast that supports [Trump & the GOP].”

Wall Street Journal Rebukes Big Business, Prof. Robert Reich

Dr. Reich quotes from a recent editorial in the Wall Street Journal by Gerard Baker, Editor-At-Large:

“Most of the causes of America’s economic dysfunction are the result of a capitalism that has mutated into a system run by and for large corporate interests. … oligopoly-level industrial concentration in almost every sector, endemic cronyism, the application of regulation, legislation and policy for the benefit of big companies, a ruinously expensive healthcare system run principally for the benefit of insurers and pharmaceutical companies. In short, the steady accretion of market, economic and political power by a business-political class that promotes its own well-being at the expense of competition, the market and ultimately the people.”
