Democracies can be characterized by "one person, one vote" whereas at best markets are "one dollar, one vote."
The public does not share equal responsibility for decisions of markets. Not by a long shot.
- Daishiman 13y agoIt's true, but every time we fail to participate in the democratic process to change the notion of how markets work, or every time we support corporations which do not share our beliefs in the system, we become complicit. Given that most of the readers here are usually middle-class consumers, they can at the very least make a few choices regarding the purchases and lifestyle to reflect their principles; I'm afraid most people never consider that.
