2. Many of those are union-made products. I generally don't boycott union-made products. |

4. I know. It's a quandary. |
|
But if the Kochs have their way, these products won't be union make for long. What to do? :shrug:

6. Thanks for the list. I was in the store reading |
|
company info on the packages. What about facial tissues (kleenex)? Where the difference can be made in a boycott though is the business sector. Especially restaurants and bars.

9. The Kochs also got massive tax breaks from Obama & centrist Democrats. |
|

Who should we ban for that one?
Never mind, lets just give the DEMS who gave the Koch brothers all the breaks that should have been ours more donations so the DEMS can combat all the Koch money the DEMS gave to them. Whewww. Getting dizzy.

10. Georgia Pacific label |
|
means I don't buy it. I sewed my own reusable, washable table napkins as my own personal boycott of Koch. Wish I could do the same for toilet paper, but there are lots of other brands out there.

14. Bought Charmin last week |
|
But I made a mistake buying Brawny towels. That's why I'm glad you posted this again. I will buy no Brawny, Sparkle or Mardi Gras again. Let's take this seriously and not help these people at all.

16. And if you really want to hurt them |
|
Pull your stock holdings in Koch industries. Not buying the products is great. Making sure you are not profiting off them is even better imho.
