Time for Solidarity-A Single Boycott Target-One by one of those that supress us
11/7/12 | self

Posted on 11/07/2012 8:00:11 PM PST by Be Careful

Someone stole our election.

Who stole from us via TARP?

Who owns/runs media outlets that conspire to destroy our world view and to steal elections?

Who aids and abets the obsfucation of our Consitution and Rule of Law?

Who advertises with these same?

Why do we continue to willingly give them our money so that they can continue to thrive and further harm us?

Time for a singular point of action.

Boycott......but whom?????

A simple target for starters, to be expanded to the entire scope of the Elite Media

I suggest:

1. GE

2. any of their advertisers on MSNBC

Any suggestions?

They never work do they. Well why do I see companies send up the white flag every time some lefty organization nobody ever heard of before even threatens one. They work, because corporate America dances to the left’s tune every time they are threatened with one.

Simple, but will require significant amounts of attention from every good conservative.

If you are a small business person, company executive or corporate officer...

1. Take personal interest in your company’s hiring decisions. Require any new applicant to provide access to their personal social networking profiles. (Many companies do this now for screening reasons.) Any active participant in liberalism, regardless of qualification, is rejected. No exceptions.

2. It’s your company, make it look like it. Let them survive on the companies they start and own (they’ll most likely learn something about what “conservatism” means).

3. I know this is “intolerant”, but we are talking about the survival of the nation here folks. They’re taking no prisoners,(or hadn’t you noticed). It’s time to be as cold as they are.

It will take time folks, but it’s us or them now.

We need to create a ‘New Mainstream Revenuestream’

This can be an umbrella concept to create a new center for us to focus our economic drivers to support/reward those that agree with our view.

Conversely, we can withold our money from those that supress us.

This is war.

I say boycott Disney, especially since they just bought Lucasfilms, and don’t forget who they are also tied into, Marvel Comics, so I passed up buying the Bluray Spiderman at Walmart.

” Maybe health co-ops or groups formed and doctors hired?”

I would be very happy to participate in such a venture, but it would require having attorneys look at all the restrictions the government has put in place before going forward. For instance, the government restricted physicians from owning health care facilities (it's OK, of course, for lawyers to own huge law firms). Thus, ownership would have to be non-physician (don't know if non-practicing physicians could be involved).

At this point, my passion for practicing medicine is at the lowest point ever in my life. I used to dream of getting into medical school when I was in college, and when I got that opportunity it was a dream come true. I don't take vacations, and have missed more holidays and weekends with family than I care to think about, but I'm part of the problem that needs to be reformed. Those who feel entitled to my services without payment are the Tiny Tims, and I am the Scrooge, even though I would never turn away anyone who really needed care because of a payment issue.

Oh well.

No, not just a personal boycott.
A movement would be required.
Limbaugh and co. might be good at this.

They could add a daily message - no movies in theaters this summer. Give Hollywood empty seats - and announce it well beforehand.

Do something else with the kids.
You can rent them all later anyway.

Have a DL who is an OBGYN and you don't have to tell me what you docs have to go through. I've seen it first hand. After all the pain to get your license, countless hours of selfless service, and litigation risks, it's outrageous that you're the first profession to be basically turned into slaves of the state.

It's why we must find a solution/way around the Obamacare disaster in the interest of our citizen's health-care needs and to protect the professional health-care providers.

If the states can't step in with a solution, perhaps private enterprise can find one.

For instance, the government restricted physicians from owning health care facilities (it's OK, of course, for lawyers to own huge law firms).

Now this has got to be unconstitutional!

It's the same as restricting a mechanic from owning a shop, a farmer from owning a farmer's market, a ...

Sorry, I totally missed what you were trying to convey after rereading your post. It flew right over my head, but I encourage you to keep working on it. We need as many good ideas for restoring America as can be conceived!

“Boycotts never work. Move on to plan B.”

Sure they do. Think Chick-Fil-A in reverse. It didn’t take long to get the message out and everyone saw the results. Support those who share your views and starve the ones that don’t.

Be wary of that advice. Barack Hussein Obama, Hollywood’s whore, made copyright protection (including pornos’) a top priority for HOMELAND SECURITY.

Unfortunately, bundled up with a-no-longer- available package with Comcast...tried to drop it, but it would cost $30 more per month to do with less. Self employed. No water cooler. Talking to the wall works for me.

Here you go:

Entries on here are very simple, for the time being. There’s a lot of data behind them, we’ll see what is good to include.

Just a test with a handful so far.

I have MSNBC blocked on my remote so tht I don’t even have to see it when surfing channels......I become physically ill to see this channel.

But, we should find out who their biggest sponsor is and do a reverse Chick-Fil-A.

Is this actually part of Obamacare?
