I won't, because I'm off work today!  And the business where I work won't be, because we have only those legally here, and citizens of this country as workers.  We also have customers who are citizens, because the price of our product is on a higher scale than other restaurants, and usually only the upper middle class eat where I work. As for impacting businesses today...I left work at 11:30 pm last night...went to WalMart to get a few things so I wouldn't have to go shopping on my offdays...and lo and behold...the place was PACKED with people (of other races) on a buying frenzy!  HMMMM....seems to me they just ruined today's boycott by buying the night before!  Now...you tell ME...how stupid is that? Given that most did that, or at least stocked up this past weekend so they won't have to shop today or tomorrow...they still gave the profit to the American businesses beforehand, making this weekend more profitable for the businesses than any normal Monday when most people don't do as much!  True?....

If it is a short paper with no research requirement, go read the whole wikipedia article on boycott, plus the important links.   \nThere are a lot of recent boycotts that are controversial(Dixie Chicks), a lot of boycotts that changed society(Rosa Parks bus boycott).

I stopped buying Pepsi when they paid Michael Jackson a ton of money to sell it. There is a local car dealership I would never go to because they insult people with the dumb commercials they run. Boycotting is the only way to express your disatisfaction, unfortunately, most of the time these big corporations don't ever know they are being boycotted. Keep it up though, at least you have that satisfaction as I do.

Many, many bars were closed down when it was found out that they were not owned by the Mob or would not buy the mob products or not pay for mob protection...........

I hate Wal-Mart! I never shop there unless I have to I absolutely cannot find the item anywhere else. \nI boycotted them for several reason:\n1) Have you seen the episode of Frontline about it? (If not check out the site at the bottom---you can see the full show online.There is another documentary available on DVD about it too, which I have not seen entitled " Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price" by Edith Arana, Red Esry, Rev. Altagracia Perez, and Donna Payton. Supposedly Wal-Mart attempted to have it stopped but was not able to. I do know people that work there that were instructed not to watch it.) \n\n2) extremely poor service. If you go in there looking for something, you can never find it & if you ask someone that works there they send you on a wild goose-chase before you find out they do not even carry it! Last time I was in there, I went for two items, it took forty-five minutes & I was not able to get either one of them! One of the items [Scotchgard] they did not even know what it was! Then I lost money in the soda machine, but the line for customer service was wrapped all the way around to the corner of the store, filled with people wanting to make returns. I asked a manager if they could help me & they said waiting in that line was the only way to get my money back. They only had one of three counters open, but there were several employees just standing around gossiping. The manager could have at least sent people over to open the two other counters so people did not have to wait so long. I have had several similar instances when the employees are unhelpful. I work in customer service & it just makes me so mad that I bend over backwards to help my customers but that it is extremely difficult to get good service when I go somewhere. Like, when you ask their employees if there are any in back---they do not even check. They just say the do not. Or when you ask where something is and they say "If it's not over there I don't know where it is" . \n3) Lack of selection. In most cases they only carry one name brand & their housebrand & the namebrand carried is not the one I use.\n4) Some items (especially the clothes) are low quality. We used to call them "Wal-Mart-fall-a-parts growing up.\n5) I can almost always find stuff cheaper somewhere else. I do not know why everyone thinks they are so cheap!\n\n(Sorry for any typos, spell check was not working.I do not think it likes long answers.)

As a business librarian, I suggest you try Hoovers business database:\n\nhttp://premium.hoovers.com\n\nThis is the best place to build current, accurate, and comprehensive company and business lists.

typical of big corporations running down mom and pop shops. It's a damn shame. \n\nIn my neighborhood, this family owned coffee shop is being replaced with Starbucks.  Enough said.
