VOTING


Many Americans do not vote in elections.  They feel there is so much corruption in our political system, why bother.  There’s no arguing with that.  However, we “vote” almost every day.  Every time we buy something we are voting.  There is nothing a company fears more than negative publicity affecting their sales.  Boycotting a company can cause the company to change its policies.  On the other hand, when you purchase something, you are “voting” for that product and company.  When you purchase meat and animal based products you are voting for the torturing and abuse of animals.  You probably are a kind and decent person who would never harm another being, but purchasing these products is your “vote” for allowing other earthlings to endure untold suffering. It’s your “vote” to add to polluting our planet.  It’s your “vote” for obesity, diabetes, cancer, and other diseases.  Next time you are in a store, remember with every item you buy, you are “voting”.
