Join The List - Introduction

At Join The List, we aim to spread the idea that people wage far more political influence by where they spend their money than by who they vote for in any given election.

While Capitalism has proven to be the most effective economic system in modern times, it does have it's failings. We believe that these failings can be best controlled by effective consumer choices, rather than Government or political intervention.

What do we mean by "effective consumer choices"? That phrase varies according to different beliefs, but we do feel that great change can occur by a widespread consciensness that individual spending on a micro scale can have sweeping effects on a macro scale.

Virtually every aspect of life in Capitalism is run on the basis of money. In every case, cash takes precedence over values no matter how good or bad the intentions. This is obvious for consumer business, but is also relevant to most every government, industry or organization. Law, Medicine, Politics, Education and even Religion all bow to the power and influence of money.

In Democracy, we are often told that we as individuals have power through our vote to elect individuals into government/ political roles. In reality, we wage for more power with the money that we spend each day. We at Join The List hope to encourage people to make daily decisions when spending their money that will support their own beliefs and values.
