Action ideas #

Organize a "fake money parade" where activists dressed as bankers or wealthy individuals carry large amounts of fake money and march through the streets, drawing attention to the concentration of wealth and power among the top 1%.

Host a "money shower" where activists throw fake money from a rooftop or other high place, simulating the way the wealthy shower their money on politicians and other powerful figures to buy influence and shape policy.

Create a "money maze" where participants must navigate a series of obstacles and challenges to reach the end, symbolizing the obstacles and barriers that the wealthy put in place to protect their wealth and power.

Organize a "money burn" where activists gather to burn stacks of fake money, symbolizing the way the wealthy use their money to fuel destructive practices and policies, such as environmental degradation and inequality.

Host a "money exchange" where participants can trade fake money for goods and services, demonstrating the potential of alternative economic systems that do not rely on money as a sole measure of value.
