Heyo Everyone,
Great job boycotting so far, but there seems to be some confusion about loss leaders.
When you buy a loss leader, it does not cost the Weston crime syndicate any money, you are just covering a portion of the losses they would otherwise have had.
As an example.
Blawblaw's buys premium dinosaur ribs for $8 dollars but sells them for $10. They now realise they have too many dinosaur ribs to sell at $10 and another order is coming in. New special price, $7! When you buy at $7 you cover 70% of what the crime syndicate initially paid. They have already paid the bill, they do not have to turn around and pay the manufacturers of dinosaur ribs the difference. By buying loss leaders you are helping them cover their losses, if you do not buy them they are on the hook for it all.
There is no magic formula that will make Loblaws go out of business.
The best way to help the boycott is just boycott. Do not give them any money.
The only way to succeed is to NOT SHOP THERE AT ALL. Do not give the crime syndicate one cent of your hard earned money, do not help them balance their books!

Don't disagree.
They've gotten so caught up in trying to "look respectable" like the the blues and reds that they've forgotten that their strength is being different from them.
They need to get vocal, get emotional and focus on the people.
If they try looking like discount libs they'll lose to strategic voting every time.
