Forum Suggestion: Progressive Marketplace

[K8-EEE]

While I'm a minimalist at heart, face it, the calls to "quit buying things" are a little silly.

I suggest that we post suggestions of retailers and services large and small that are progressive-friendly. In this way we "vote" with our dollars every day. Also we can post those who support the RNC, GWB, etc and avoid them.

3. Here are a few more:

Paul Newman (Newman's Own brand - pasta sauce, etc.)
Tom's of Maine (natural toothpaste)
Wild Oats (organic grociery store chain)
Gaim/Real Goods (mail order - including solar power supplies)

Just a small start....

We don't have to be extreme at everything we do :)

4. There Are Options For Almost Everything That Help Our Side

Why throw our bucks to the Dark Siders?? They love money most of all, I don't want them to get any more of mine than absolutely necessary.

I prefer a nice white wine my self, but Miller is a strong union run business
