Indeed, the distribution and specialization of the supply chain means it's not really possible to "tip" all the way through to the factory line workers at the point of purchase. For similar reasons, it's very hard to apply morality to purchases - not only are any evils in production hidden from view at the point of purchase, but the cross-supply of parts means there's lots of evil in all the products.

You know what might help? Blockchains. This might actually be something that could help with. It'd be an immutable ledger of sources. It'd not be perfect, probably. But, it might help.
