I would ask that each and every consumer in thise great and glorious state unite together for one day in order to show the retailers in this area that the power of the consumer is awesome !! Let us all take one day off, preferably a saturday or a sunday ( black Friday would be ideal, but the will of the people is weak). from patronizing the large malls and retail centers. Once we make our statement the malls and large corporate retailers will find ways to lure us back with economic incentives never before scene in this consumerist driven culture.
We can unify people, not just when a disaster is at hand, we can unite for the good of the all of us.
Power to the people.
