Shit services like Spotify is a reminder to vote with you wallet and do your research. It's ok to switch up your subs.
Being a subscriber since day 1 does nothing for the consumer.
I wish the "vote with your wallet" were real... It's as effective a "recycle your plastics"
It's only effective in deflecting responsibility to a party that is truly powerless to address the issues
Well think about if everybody did do that at the same time. Canceled Netflix, stopped going to Starbucks, stop shopping a certain places.
Maybe just for one week. What if everybody had enough gas in the world they could skip a day or two of getting gas.
It's impossible to organize... More importantly, the government would bail them out because they are too big to fall
Again, impossible to organize and completely useless.... By the end of the week the oil companies would be whole anyway. What do they care if they have a revenue dip for 3 days followed by a revenue bump as everybody ran out of gas and had to fill up again ?
