Do you have more power as a consumer or as a voter?

Consumer vs voter — who wins? As a consumer…

  • No business has ever pointed a gun at you
  • You can fire any company at any time without risk of harm
  • You can even complain and get your money back

Now compare this with your lot as a voter and taxpayer……

  • Complaints do little
  • You need the permission of a voting majority to change anything
  • You will be harmed if you try to withdraw your patronage

Where does your greater power lie?

You have vast power as a consumer, but almost none as a voter.

  • Consumers are kings
  • Voters are captives
