One silver lining to the Citizens United decision is this: voters are also consumers. Since elected officials listen to their donors, their donors are often companies, and companies listen to their customers, that SCOTUS decision 15 years ago turned the whole economy into a kind of giant ballot box. Which is to say that, in addition to voting, you can make your voice heard politically by supporting (or not) companies based on which political causes they give money to.

Now, on every brand page, is a bar with 2 buttons. You can register your support or displeasure with any brand’s campaign finance activities using the two buttons, and see how the other users of Goods, in the aggregate, feel about that brand.
