We don’t have to obey. From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:
In the early days of every crisis, people wonder – what is to be done? Many feel helpless to do anything, as if caught in a ripe tide. This can be very demoralizing. After all, what’s the point of doing anything if nothing you do changes anything?
But there is in fact a great deal that can be done. And things done one by one can add up to great things done.
As for instance what was done by probably hundreds of thousands of individuals who exercised their veto power by not buying Bud Light beer – after Bud Light Beer put something extremely distasteful to them on the can the beer came in. As a result, the distasteful thing is no longer on the can – and the beer may not be around for much longer, either.
