Really?? So everything you buy is a pharmaceutical, an overly-salted fast food, a copy machine or from an international accountant or financial service? How many cars do you have for kids?

I am personally amazed when I see an ad for something I actually do buy!! Was pleasantly surprised once when I was actually USING a product as it was being advertised...Heineken! There are so few products/services with TV/radio ads, I find it quite easy to “boycott” advertisers, as our fantastic, freedom-based system allows for numerous competitors of comparable quality and cheaper price to choose from.

Maybe its time to change your diet to fresh foods and local or small market (generally healthier) producers, and away from the processed crap filled with whatever chemicals and salts they can concoct to make cardboard taste half as good as McDonalds.

if you weren’t gonna buy something, that isn’t a boycott. a boycott is when you refrain from buying a product or patronizing a business that you normally would have used.
it isn’t a boycott if you never used the service, or the product. they have to feel the loss of revenue for the boycott to work. losing business they never had isn’t a boycott.

real boycotts hurt.
