Those methods can bring local economies to their knees but in the global market they have less of an impact. Also when they are used for the trivial as well as serious issues, their impact is minimized - comparing not watching Soul Train because Ashanti is up for an award shouldn't even be mentioned in the same breath as not buying products of companies that supported Apartheid.

That's the key bringing them to their knees because when that's done it's time to come together and compromise(and that's what everybody wants when it's all said and done like an employee and a boss with differences) .....and as for me mentioning Ashanti that's a general example and it must be some kind of important. just ask the 20000+ petitioners. You can't dictate what is important and what isn't...your idea of what might be important maybe someone elses idea of what's not! Of course the deal with Soul Train won't save the world but the question from jump stated "what do you feel is the best change agent" it didn't specify for what (e.g. social, economic, financial, terrorism, HIV/Aids in Africa,etc.) It was a general question ask!
