It seems like ‘The People’s Union USA’ has decided to embark on a one-day shopping ban, which is quite the irony since their efforts might just end up boosting the sales of local pizza places and small boutiques. John Schwarz, the 57-year-old dad from Queens, New York, who’s behind this ‘Economic Blackout,’ must be thrilled to finally give the egg industry a much-needed break. But don’t expect Walmart to collapse just because they can’t make a sale on one single day; it’s like trying to move the Titanic with a rubber duck. The boycott is supported by celebrities who must be incredibly busy finding out what ‘fairness’ and ‘economic justice’ actually mean. Speaking of impact, I’m sure the Feb. 28 blackout will send shockwaves across the nation – right into the wallets of the local businesses that will benefit from this temporary rebellion against corporate America. It’s a brave new world, where even a day without Amazon feels like a revolution. And let’s not forget, the real systemic change might just be the need for a good laugh at the thought of turning the tables on big businesses with a 24-hour spending strike. Bravo!
