Boycotts hit them where it hurts the most -- right in the profits! And if you don't think boycotts ever work, you are only partially right. Consider Coors beer, who recently had to change their whole outlook towards their employees. I am sure the change did not come about out of the kindness of their hearts, either. I am sure the 30% drop in sales during the boycott had something to do with it!
