I know money talks but this is especially disappointing--though not surprising. Unfortunately, the only way to make an effective statement is for a significant number of people to simply stop shopping here which will never happen. If one thing counts more than votes in this country, it's money. Unless people start using that power influence the course of events, such policies will continue and indeed get worse. Complaining here is pretty much just pissing in the wind.
