First, I only frequent a couple of the places named.

1. I can boycott these companies that without a powerful, national force will have very little or no impact. The CEOs will still be eating caviar and drinking champagne.

2. I can continue to frequent these businesses, and enjoy the products while at the same time help regular people like you and me keep their jobs that support their families.

I think I'll go with the regular people and their families.
