Never underestimate the number of votes you get. While the United States may only elect one president every four years, and each of us only gets one vote a piece in such a race, we have many more than that.
...and I'm not talking about senators. I'm talking about money.
In a capitalistic society, each dollar spent is a vote, a bid for the success of that particular business and a word of support for the industry that the dollar went to.
Spend your money on the kind of world you want to see. Support the products you want to see more of. Buy from companies that are run the way you like. Finance industries that you believe improve humanity and the world you live in.
Worry less about what you are getting with your dollar. Worry more about what you are doing with your dollar.

I agree. The first place I look for gifts now is the hungersite store, and I've recently discovered the fair trade federation.
Thanks for the resources.
