Makes no difference in my opinion if you bought on the day before and then the day after at these places. We need to stop buying unnecessary things. Buy from locally owned stores and restaurants all the time.

I completely agree that the issue is much larger than a single day! I’ll be participating tomorrow in solidarity, but we absolutely need a much larger shift away from mega-corporations and excess consumption. I’m hopeful that the awareness mainstream media has put on the economic blackout will make a difference for people who might not previously have been tapped into these issues. Thanks so much for commenting!
