    maybe but thats not this one. I will say that prime day and black friday would be the most difficult for the poor. The problem with the one corp at a time is what are your demands of them. These general strikes is because of the direction of the country in no small part do to corporate manipulation. Its to get them to push the administration they helped get installed away from this dismantling of the country. Its also not a bad idea to save money so you have it for an extremely bad economic situation.

      Yeah, but if I don’t spend money today, I’m spending it tomorrow. I don’t need less groceries and gas for the week because I didn’t spend money today.

        yeah im not sure now who all might have seen my other comments but companies gather constant metrics. Its about a one day dive. So some folks may by stuff the day before, some after, or some days either direction within a week in most cases. Its a show of force. Like a warning shot. If it works and the news is talking about how companies showed a massive drop in purchasing today then it will have the intended effect.
