You vote with your wallet.

I checked my credit card statement and I can’t find “57 million tons of plastic” anywhere on it.

Meanwhile, I’m walking through literally any store anywhere, and it seems like every conceivable piece of commercial merchandise is trapped in a six-inch thick plastic clam shell. Like, you routinely get more packaging than product. I’m not asking for this. I don’t want to purchase it. But I’m told that anything not embedded in a plastic Ft. Knox has a 0.2% higher chance of being shoplifted, so I just need to accept this as a consequence of people voting without their wallets.
