    Of course they raise the prices and a single individuals contribution is completely non existent on the market.

    But still the most simple solution remains. We might argue that one has to buy food, so they are forced, but luxury goods can very easily be left in the store. Of course it will have absolutely no effect on the overall market, just on their own wallet.

      Yes, we can not buy entertainment and simply buy essentials. We can only go to work, come home, eat, and sleep.

      But thats a very boring existence, and offering that as an alternative instead of demanding change actively speaks very poorly of your opinion of people.

      The world is increasingly monetized, and simply refusing to participate will not change that. It will just cut you off more and more from the world. Which is worse for everyone.
