SOPA: Don't Just Protest -- Get Even source Tony Cartalucci, Contributing Writer Activist Post

The entire reason why SOPA's authors and supporters have the money, influence, and power to put forward draconian bills like this in the first place is because of our daily patronizing of their corporations and the goods and services they provide.

SOPA supporters include the US Chamber of Commerce, the MPAA, and many of the mega-corporations Americans, and indeed people around the world, support on a daily basis. The key to stopping SOPA and the watered-down feigned "concession" that will surely followis to undermine the unwarranted power and influence of the corporations and financiers backing.

If Americans withdrew their support from these corporations -- if theaters were left empty, if Pepsi and Coke were left collecting dust on the shelves of an empty Wal-Mart -- bills like SOPA would not exist, let alone have a chance to be passed into law.

Below is just one letter signed by just one group of these corporations and organizations. Boycott, put out of business, and replace these corporations with local alternatives.

Sponsors of this letter in support of "rogue sites legislation" include:

3M Alliance of Automobile Manufactures American Apparel and Footwear Associations Autodesk Inc. Bose Corporation Broadcast Music Inc (BMI) Caterpillar CBS Council of Fashion Designers of America Electronic Arts (EA) Ford Motor Company GlaxoSmith Kline Harley-Davidson Motor Company Johnson & Johnson L'Oreal Macmillian Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) National Basketball Association (NBA) National Football League (NFL) NBC Universal News Corporation (Fox News) NHL Nike Nintendo of America Oakley Pfizer PGA of America Philip Morris International Reebok Rite Aid Rolex Rosetta Stone Software & Information Industry Association Sony Dow Chemical McGraw-Hill Timberland Walt Disney Tiffany & Co. Time Warner Toshiba US Chamber of Commerce Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Universal Music Group Viacom Wal-Mart Warner Music Group World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Xerox Corporation Zippo Manufacturing

If you can't live without the endless crass torrent of "bread and circus" as well as trinkets provided by the above mentioned supporters of this corporate-fascist agenda -- the literal crafting and backing of legislation of-by-and-for corporations -- you don't deserve the freedom you believe yourself entitled to.

There is not one corporation listed above that society could not live without and in many cases replace with decentralized, superior local alternatives. Freedom is not simply voicing your opposition, or choosing representatives to do so on your behalf; freedom is also about the responsibility to keep in check the creation of unwarranted power and influence garnered from your daily payments in attention, money, time, and energy to corporations that would seek to impose their will upon society using the very mechanisms of governance designed solely for the people's benefit.

Identify the source of power behind bills like SOPA, and indeed many of the government policies wrecking our society, miring us in endless war, and leaving us in economic destitution. Boycott them, and replace them. We cannot be blamed for the greed and depravity of the global corporate-financier elite, but we can be blamed for fueling their megalomania on a daily basis.

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one.

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”

—Samuel Adams
