    Global Boycott

    My lunchtime rabid musings led me to this question.

    Given that there are more people than elite, more people than big corporates and people power is not used to it's fullest extent, why is there not a site organising global boycotts of stuff?

    Imagine the power we could wield. Moving markets, driving down prices. Scary stuff.

    Global peasants revolt? Why has this not yet happened?

    Just saying like ™
    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

        Because the mob can be bought with gladiatorial games.

          Only for so long. Once the global consciousness wakes up. If you let them eat cake, and then take the cake away, what happens?

              Because quite simply a single person is smart, a group of people are dumb!

              The biggest single demographic in any election is the pensioners, they always have the highest turn out but no one has managed to focus this influence into a party or single idea

                Very poor thread 1/10

                Suityou, not as good as he used to be.
                What happens in General, stays in General.
                You know what they say about assumptions!

                  I seem worse because you've sobered up.
