And it is these companies that we should punish. I would love to find a way to inspire the consumers of this world to form a deep and powerful union.<p>A union that stands together and through collective boycotting, is able to effect just one corporate take down. And by that I mean complete, absolute and terrible market action that brings a company to its knees and bankruptcy, Lehman Brothers style (I understand the employees are &#x27;collateral damage here but I think it would be worth it).<p>If we could just once, take down a stock market level company, through the pure will of the people, I think we could undermine the almost unmatchable power of the corporation as it stands today.<p>The argument against of course is that boycotts have never really worked. Consumers don&#x27;t want to work in union. Corporations control the media and as such are able to persuade the people of it ineffectiveness.<p>But one success would change all that. I&#x27;d love to see that happen in my lifetime.
