Let’s boycott. Boycott the banks; boycott consumption. The only way to demand an economy not based on debt-driven consumer spending is to stop buying stuff, especially with plastic cards. ALL the banks should be boycotted while the bailout goes on without re-regulation. Everyone can move their money into tiny community credit unions, and out of the big banks. Cut up credit cards. And if people simply stop buying things, it will force investment in a real economy–let’s go back to manufacturing. I don’t want to buy my clothes from sweatshops in China, where workers cannot organize, and there are no environmental regulations. Organized, national boycotts of banks, Wal-Marts, and shopping malls–with press releases explaining why.
