Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Yup. One day of no shopping means the big corps just weather a day of lower purchases and the next day people will be buying the stuff they skipped out on friday. It's hardly a noticeable blip to them.
Yeah as much as id like to see pressures on some corps, I think it is better to target certain corps.
One day, as you said you are just buying the next day, or back loading a day earlier.
Coprporates only understand 10k/10Qs, market caps, and wealth increase for shareholders. So, that's right, quarter on quarter or year on year trend movements will be the only thing because certain EPS is not reached because sales was low, this is the only metric they will understand. I was watching a documentary once and there was a town or group of villages in India somewhere which had made a system to have near zero wastes in their eco system of crops and gardens and they went pretty much self reliant... I was like why can't we do that... I don't know whether that requires lots of research or whatnot.... But if any significant group of people can do that, all of the system will come begging.... On their knees or will try to destroy the doers.
