I have to agree with akudiya, here. It will take much
more than a lack of sales on one large shopping day to
bring them down. Revolutions are never pretty and a
lot of people die. That is the cost of overthrowing an
oppressive governmental system or leaders. I think
there is still more time needed an more exploitation
to be done before this happens.
