If you're going to boycott every business that doesn't agree with 100% you'd better start growing your own food, hitching up the oxcart and weaving your own linens.

You outliers remind me of my toddler grand daughter who thinks she controls the ocean tides when she raises her arms on the seashore.

I live in a rural area and, I am doing all the above you mention with the exception of making woolen garments.

If push comes to shove I have enough land to have my own Sheep and, my brother owns a spinning wheel for making yarn. There are many in our family who can make clothing as well as any thing I would buy from walley world.The Chinese aren't the only people who can produce clothing.

Well the Amish do do what you are suggesting and for a simple lifestyle they seem to live rather well! Maybe we should do more to emulate Amish folk!
