Oh boy, another useless "strike" that no one will follow.
Sorry about the cynicism. Even if WE don't buy anything, the majority of the country will still buy, buy, buy. Last edited by Humble Janitor; 06-30-2009 at 08:27 AM. |

There always is someone that does something first. With such "positive" ( you always promote positive attitude) attitude nothing will ever be done. i'll tell you a story. A few years ago, when most people still used plastic shopping bags when doing shopping, I always, ostentantiously asked the shop assistant not to put my stuff into a plastic bag because I had my own,( made of cotton). I did it a few times and then within a few days I saw people coming to the store with cotton shopping bags, i thought the: "A miracle or what...?" |

Re: National Strike Day July 13th 2009 - DO NOT BUY ANYTHING
recently, i decided
if i hadn't used something for 1 year, i had to free-cycle it, or give it to someone who would use it it is time to get bartering / and, eXchanging again it is time to look at everything you purchase if the label says modified put it back also -- are you using the local farmer's markets ??? are you learning how to make things from scratch... where you control what goes into it !!! are you learning to ride a bike / or, walk or, limit how much you need to drive ??? this really is all about -- stopping bad exchange love/susan the eXchanger |

Just a friendly reminder, dare yourself and friends not to spend any monopoly money for one day. Not as though less money isn't being spent every day already. Thank you economic stimulus! |

Re: National Strike Day July 13th 2009 - DO NOT BUY ANYTHING
I'll be onboard but I do this most every day. I don't have enough money to buy anything anyway. I grow a lot of my food, go to the local farm's market, my husband and I car pool to work. We keep the thermostat high even with our Texas heat and are looking into ways to go wind or solar. I try to not let the water run when washing my hands or brushing my teeth. I use to love long showers but now filter my water and shower quickly. I feel like I am on stirke everyday. So I'm am down with 7/13/09.
