Mary, one of the fundamental aspects of organizing is to expect folks that believe in ethical treatment of workers to support them by not purchasing the product. The problem is getting folks to do that when there is no organized structure to promote the boycott. With no structure the message to the company is fuzzy.

If you but think back over the years, there have been so many attempts to get folks to hit them in their bottom line, but Americans (as well as other countries) have lost their sense of right and wrong. They don't want to think of the damage to people, and families, as long as they get the best price.

This is about organizing. The organizing was a response to the conditions these folks were forced to endure. The other side of the argument is that the employer wants to be able to pad its bottom line at the expense of the worker. Simple as that.
