Votes are only usable every 2-4 years. Consumer dollars have power 24/7-365. The spending boycott needs to go on long into Spring and Sumner and as long as the orange convict is in office. Make MAGA spend their money on crap.

New trend in Colorado is to add credit card transaction fees to the consumers check out price and giving a lower price for cash. The consumer is now handing money directly to the banks when using a credit card.

All it takes for a spending boycott to be successful is participation.
