I want mega corps to fail, not spark a great depression.

Yeah, having like <5% of people put off buying stuff for a week isn't going to do that.

Unfortunately at this point only something fairly world-changing is going to really do much. And it's definitely going to get much worse before it gets better. Prepare for it.

With that said - I'm definitely not saying DON'T do it. Just realize this is would be a raindrop and we need a flood.

If people actually want change, they need to think way bigger (and unfortunately, probably harder).

You can't have change without sacrifice.
