YOU HAVE THE POWER
Consider this: America is the largest consumer market in the world. That means we have the power to not give these corporations who are trading Americans as commodities in a global labor market our money.
Free traitor corporations are saying "there is no job that is America's God-given right anymore" . They want to give jobs to foreigners living in 3rd world economies, yet expect Americans to continue to buy, buy, buy. . We wish to reciprocate this treatment by saying "corporations have no God-given right to our US dollars".
Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and BoA are some of the worst corporations who fire Americans and hire cheap foreign labor. Citigroup and Goldman Sachs are heavily investing in China and and other markets after our supposed WTO "free trade", "laissez faire" agreements were made. Those very trade agreements clearly favor foreign nations. Citigroup and Goldman Sachs also lobby Washington extensively for further free traitor agreements from which they profit handsomely.
We request you cancel your American Express card, your CitiBank card and close your BoA and BankOne checking accounts, transfer your mortgages and accounts with a local credit union who invests in your local area. The garment industry has been devastated by companies either going bankrupt or moving to China due to inability to compete with the flood of 3rd world products. Walmart alone accounts for 10% of our China trade deficit and now medical records, diagnosis, tax returns, engineering, software design are being sent offshore. Make a point to research the services you use and only support corporations who keep our jobs at home.
Organics almost always are locally produced or at least support a reasonable quality of life to the foreigner farmer and they taste great too! Visit your local micro brewery and farmer's market and support your union grocery instead of at a local organic grocery store, buy hippie-dippy household products, get beer at a local micro brewery and buy coffee at the neighborhood roaster (not Starbucks). All these things are not more expensive - just less convenient to find, and require trial and error. For example, the beer is half the cost of supermarket brands and the coffee is the same price, but much better quality.
