I searched "economic blackout day" on google and page 3 brought me here. All the previous matches were corporate "news" sites. Good essay, thank you. My plan for Feb 28 is to not shop and attempt to not even use internet because all the targeted advertising. [In other words, "airplane mode"]
I, too, am trying to let my spending influence the people in power. But I have also been writing to my so-called representative to Congress, my Senators (who share our frustration), and I even wrote to Stephen Colbert, asking him to promote the Economic Blackout. I have emailed dozens of friends and acquaintances about Feb. 28th, too.
Individually, we feel so powerless, but if we raise our voices together, we will be heard.
