- Everyone who takes Microeconomics with Elzinga knows that consumers “cast dollar votes” which determine the output of an industry. Individuals can be socially conscious consumers by “voting with their dollars” – purchase products produced responsibly.

Similarly, by not buying unsustainably produced products they are boycotting the offenders.
