Feed what you want to see grow stronger and starve what you wish would perish from this Earth. Do not buy what you don't need and do not earn more than you need because the extra taxes will go to military spending. Buy from co-ops and local farmers if possible. Put your money in a credit union. Use cash. Buy from small businesses when possible. Build community. In any way possible, work outside the system. In every way possible, avoid giving your money and your power to corporations. There is something positive happening in every community, and if there isn't something happening in yours, work to build something, however humble. When you work at the local level, suddenly all of the stupid things our politicians tell us to fight about don't seem so insolvable.
