This is a little resistance thing I'm going to do...

Don’t have the wording or design yet but this is a very inexpensive way to spread some resistance. I’m going to order a bunch of business cards, I’ve seen one price of about 7 dollars for 500 cards.
I was going to say something like …”Trump caused this”….or “Trump Tax is in effect” …something like that. Then drop them on the shelves of stores and wherever it seems like a good place. Also being so inexpensive multiple messages could be used.

Or even "a tax ultimately paid by the consumer".

“These prices brought to you by
Trump and his minions”

“Price brought to by Trumpflation”

“Prices brought to you by Trumpnomics”

I had a couple others, but the mind went blank😀

Easy to print, micro-perforated for clean edges. Make as many/few as you need, change your text as your message or info changes. I use to make simple “calling cards,” with my name, phone, email. I didn’t want to order a big batch (again) in case my contact info changed.

I use the white stock, this is just an image I grabbed from the ‘web. The raw card are blank—the example in the pic is someone’s added border etc. the packaging will include info for a downloadable template for arranging your message on the face of the cards so they come out correctly.
