When corporations lose large chunks of consumers, they notice. The problem is that it's too easy for corporations to hide behind a million brand names and subsidiaries. Even people who are adamant about boycotting Nestle still end up buying from a Nestle subsidiary because it's almost impossible not too. Nestle has so many subsidiaries how can anyone keep track? An easy solution to this problem, of not easily knowing if the product you want to purchase is made by a company you boycott, would change the future the most.
