10. Stop spending as if Bidon was still president. Choke off their money supply.

People underestimate the power and leverage of their consumer dollar. Wages and benefits trickle down.
Consumer dollars flow up, control the flow to the corps. and banks. Votes can only be used every 2-4 years, consumer dollars have power 24/7-365. If everyone of the 11-million at the No Kings rallies chopped an extra $25.00 a week from their spending, do the math, 4-weeks a month, 12-months a year. Mobs, gangs and organized crime don't like their money supply messed with.
Let MAGA float the economy

If it helps, don't think of it as a spending boycott, think of it as saving $25.00 a week for and emergency fund.
The more that participate, the bigger the results. Not spending money can be done from the comfort of your couch.
Not spending money is as easy as ordering from Amazon, plus you're saving.
