Well, that's one suggestion.  I prefer the alternative of knowing the
views of those I *choose* to do -- or not do -- business with, and not
just locally, either.  And, I don't feel compelled to find out about
*every* view, just what I've determined is most important to me.

My personal spending choices may or may not be enough to make any
difference at all, but I have no problems looking at myself in the
mirror.  That wouldn't be the case if I spent my dollars at businesses
working against my primary values.

Then I suggest you walk to *every* business in Moscow, Pullman, and the
outlying towns and find out which owners disagree with every view you
hold.

Or is your broad tolerance a little more narrow than that?

Best,
