I already do boycott them.If large numbers of people followed your lead, it would result in the loss of perhaps tens of thousands of high-paying American jobs. IBM is a major component of the Dow Jones Industrial average. If a major boycott took hold, the impact would likely be felt in a sinking DJIA. So, it would appear that your goal is to hurt the American economy and job outlook. Why would you want to do such a thing?
