So you’re saying that now “voting with your money” doesn’t make any sense? But wasn’t that the standard liberal answer to “socialist strikes”? /s

Also, does that mean that one has to pay to be heard? Isn’t that census all over again? (Not so /s)

I said no such thing. Voting with your wallet means changing who you do business with. Selling your stock in a company does exactly zero to their bottom line, you are not voting at all.

Value is determined by demand. If demand drops so does value. Also bottom line and stock price are different things.
