Voting With Dollars: It's the American Way

If someone told you how to voice your discontent by doing nothing, would you be interested? Well, here’s a way — it’s called a boycott, and all you have to do is…nothing.

Explanation: Here in the new USA, money is all that matters. Corporations are rolling over for MAGA politics before they’re even asked by eliminating their diversity, equity and inclusion policies. If you find this cowardice unacceptable, let these companies know by bringing your business elsewhere. As a rule of thumb, shop as locally as you can for starters. And then avoid spending money with companies that have dropped their DEI programs.

Amazon has earned special interest with its union-busting, anti-worker warehouses and Jeff Bezos’ new editorial policies imposed on the Washington Post. So FYI, Amazon also owns ShopBop, Audible, Washington Post, Alexa products, IMDB, Twitch, Ring, Prime Video, Zappos and Whole Foods. Just sayin’.
