Slav's Energy Stand-Up: Price caps
As one of you told me, I got out there and quite possibly bombed but I had fun bombing. And no, it’s not about the price caps you think it’s about. Enjoy (hopefully).
P.S. I am considering improved visual recording equipment. Whyever I even thought the laptop’s camera might be good enough I have no idea, given the quality of its software (I’m glaring at you, Microsoft). But there it is.
Hilarious! Your delivery was great - it felt like I was listening to a magical thinking teenager on TikTok. Very well done!
Irina love the concept, I always vote with my wallet. May I suggest a slight modification to your idea? Targeted boycotts where we withdraw our patronage from certain suppliers of goods and services i.e. A 3 month boycott on all and any product from a targeted producer, it would only have to happen once or twice to have the competitors quaking in their boots especially when announcing the next target (yet to be named) will experience a 6 month boycott.
Top executives would be apoplectic at the thought of all their annual bonuses and share options disappearing overnight, and if they try more shrinkflation or lower quality then they should get ready for a perma-ban. Our rulers listen to corporations not the people so it makes perfect sense to pressure the corporations not the governments directly.
