VOTE WITH THE
ECONOMIC STRIKE

Transactional governance monetizes executive favor. Divestment is the only veto that cannot be ignored.

Mission Statement

EconomicStrike.org disrupts "Transactional Governance." Research from 2025 identifies a pattern of systemic reciprocity: media conglomerates yielding content for merger approvals, law firms paying pro bono "taxes" to avoid litigation, and retailers rolling back rights to secure favor. We empower consumers to strip the material incentive from political capitulation by shifting capital to independent alternatives.
