The fact that some people get more votes.
Voice, keystrokes, going to the streets is more accessible.
I am not saying dont vote with your wallet. I am saying do vote in all possible ways. Complain, tell people, talk to your representative, create ballot proposals.
Often 'vote with your wallet' is offered as a substitute for the other, more acessible, more powerful means of expression. More powerful especially for those that have smaller wallets.
So I think it requires a complement. "yes, and" :P
