Omar, do you really think you have more influence in the federal government than you do corporations?
Do you really think that you have more influence in, say, whether the US attacks Iran or not, versus whether Domino's improves their sauce formula, or whether Hasbro releases show-accurate MLP toys, or whether Nintendo releases a better 2nd analog stick thing for the 3DS, etc.?
You can't do anything to change the federal government. Let's say you don't want a war in Iran, what do you do? Vote Romney? Don't vote? You can't change anything. Your power over corporations as a customer is infinitely greater than your power as a voter over the federal government (because 0 times infinity is still 0).
