Hitting where it hurts, again.

An activist proposes an economic boycott. David Livingstone calls upon everyone to make a statement using not only a voice but something else. His website puts it clearly how it can be done:
This January 20th:
- Call in sick to work
- Don't buy anything
...and write to your newspaper, your
senator and your representative
to tell them why.

He argues that, obviously, the power will be in numbers, keeping in mind that 49% of the population have voted differently in this election.
There is, though, a language that they understand, and it's one that you speak: The language of dollars. The dollars they make from your purchases, the dollars they make from your labor, and the dollars that flow into federal coffers when you pay your taxes.
Your dollars are their power. The more of your dollars you give to them, the more power they have. Conversely, the more you keep for yourself, the more power you have. It's that simple.
