HN is, from what I can tell, not necessarily the best bellwether for 'human actions taken'. It's sort of a small, insulated bubble. Just a heads up.
The biggest problem is that, for many folks, there is no longer such a thing as 'local' store to buy things they need. Everything is a chain - wal-mart, dollar general, those sorts of places. So, to them, what's the difference between amazon and faceless corporation (b)?
