Maybe someone can explain this to me: How is it that Trump can get away with all this illegal shit? Like, not in terms in criminal charges, but in terms of why the fuck is anyone doing what he says? It seems everyone agrees that Trump’s tariffs are illegal, so why are they being enforced? Why are they being paid? Why are government orgs complying with illegal demands?
A conditional “Yay!” to Costco. They’re a big corp, but in comparison with the others these days, one of the most sane and least worker-hostile. At least last I heard, they had very good worker health-care and pension plans. And they still hadn’t increased the price of that hot dog. I don’t have a membership but the hot dogs still call to me…
I have no idea how ethically-sourced their inventory is though. Probably not better than the others, but I’ll take what I can get for wins in this era.
As a retail wholesaler carrying most major brands, I think they just stock whatever people are buying. You can buy bulk Nestlé products there for example.
Best way to vote for products is still with your wallet. I’ve seen some ethical alternatives there before. Not sure what more you can do other than directly contacting them though.
