Re: Oh well

Voting with your wallet?
That never works.

Corporations will have other people who do buy from them, and no doubt always will have SOMEONE willing to do so.

No matter how much you 'vote' with your wallet, do you expect it will really make a difference?

There's the people who pay and the people who won't pay, and there are no traces of individuality.

Saying that you or I should vote with our wallets only means that either we will find a competitor or will do without, will not mean that the corporations will listen - they have others, they don't NEED you or me.

Just as people aren't required to buy from a certain place, and as you say can vote with our wallets, corporations are only in it to make profits, it doesn't mean that it's your money or my money that will be their profit.

XANA, I agree with you to a certain extent. Individually, no they probablt would not know. However, if you get serious numbers doing it, then I would think they would pay attention.

If every Corporation is greedy and concerned about stock price, then any serious loss of revenue will impact them severely. Especially ones with a serious CAPEX budget.
