To start a conversation about the use of boycott in conjunction with the non-violent actions of #OccupyWallSt Movement
Now is the time for the 99% to tap the power of consumer activisim known as the Boycott. Starting with surgical-like boycotts on agreed upon subjects( ie corporations) or with large scale mutil-national boycotts, we need to build this muscle to use as a tool in our community. Always non-violent, alway peaceful, this is where our power lies...

I propose a " FOREVER BOYCOTT" on all things Koch, to get started.
Oligarchy is a form of power structure in which power effectively rests with an elite class distinguished by royalty, wealth, family ties, commercial, and/or military legitimacy. The word oligarchy is derived from the Greek words "ὀλίγος" (olígos), "a few" and the verb "ἄρχω" (archo), "to rule, to govern, to command".[3]
Throughout history, most oligarchies have been tyrannical, relying on public servitude to exist, although others have been relatively benign. Plato pioneered the use of the term in Chapter Four, Book Eight of "The Republic" as a society in which wealth is the criterion of merit and the wealthy are in control. The actual literal translation from the Greek is "rule of the few". However oligarchy is not always a rule by wealth, as oligarchs can simply be a privileged group, and do not have to be connected by bloodlines as in a monarchy. Some city-states from ancient Greece were oligarchies.

What if........
we were to get everyone we know to stop buying all products from any corporation owned or funded by the KOCH BROTHERS. Your Mom and Dad, brothers, sister, friends and even Grandma would be up for this one. This is an easy one. They have been using their wealth to sway Supreme Court decisicions, funding the Tea Party and their activities, funding most of the anti-tax and anti-union rhetoric we've been hearing lately and much, much more.
These guys ARE NOT good americans.
Many of their companies are easy for us to get to, not like corporations like Halliburton, which would be much harder for us to engage.
Let's call it out and make it happen.
The bottom line is the only thing that will get their attention....
Just one idea....... Remember we have over 50% of the US on our side!
What if we developed a new method of boycotting that was more reflective of our new interconnectedness?????????
