"Letter to the editor" Doris Chorny

You’re invited to a big event from midnight Thursday, February 27th to midnight Friday, February 28th.   Don’t buy anything!

Do not use credit cards or debit cards.  Don’t buy gas. Don’t shop in stores or online.  No Target, no McDonalds, no Amazon.
It’s the 24-Hour Economic Black Out against our current government.  Since consumer spending is 70% of GDP, our dollars will speak louder than words. With significant participation this Economic Black Out will grab the attention of banks, big box stores and the media.
To make it a big event, join in.  Spread the word. (The next Black Out could be bigger and longer.)
