How about buy quality? We should be holding all products to a high quality standard. The race to the bottom -- best promulgated by Wal-Mart -- means that somewhere along the line there are cuts being made. Ideally, price cuts should come from production innovation. A lot of cuts come from wage cuts (which undermines the economy) or production cuts (which undermines the product itself).
These are things, however, that the consumer needs to care about, and it seems that the consumers (people who vote with their dollars) are not very concerned with how products reach their homes (not very concerned with the consequences of their purchase).
