Consumerism dictates development. The real power has ever lain in the hands of the people. It is the media's job to direct the consumer. The only path to change this is if the consumer starts to dictate policy through one's own actions. Corporations will have no choice but to comply with the wishes of the consumer, therefore, the more responsibly a consumer shops, the more responsible corporations will have to become.
