The Spirit of 1776, The smarts of 2007 July 04, 2007 7:45 PM

I believe the smarts of 2007, along with the spirit of 1776 will give us a Revolution that will work. Revolutionaries, out of frustration resort to violent means but we can avoid such tactics by thinking smart.

Boycotts for instance are an effective yet nonviolent means to an end.

I totally agree!  I have been saying for years now...if we don't buy anything, except the basic neccessities...things will have to change!

Another good thing is changing your voter registration card to Independent so none of the parties can take you for granted anymore!

Speaking of Boycotts July 05, 2007 7:02 AM

Boycotting banks is very important. Don't forget that the American Revolution wasn't just about getting Independence from the British but it was the last straw when British banks refused to let America have it's own currency.

Ironically our currency of today isn't really American but owned by the "FEDERAL" RESERVE which is really a cartel of foreign bankers.

Boycotting July 05, 2007 9:02 AM

I think your right Sherrie,Dianne,and Donna,We need to start boycotting,many places,A few weeks ago people had a day where they would not buy Gas,If people would have got behind that It would have made a voice for people to say we have had enough,There are places me and family wont shop at,and I think we need to do it more,love and hugs JoAnn..  [ send green star]

I'm in agreement with all you great ladies, but I do have one question?  (even if it is a silly one ok )

Where I am, most people aren't even aware of certain days or dates when they are boycotting, and the few who do?  it depends on if they want or need whatever it is being boycotted, so...

How do you get more ppl when you are like the only one who has brains and/or guts to do anything?
