    its a weighted vote based on how much money you are willing to spend.

    Correct, which means capitalists with orders of magnitude more money has more influence than a boycott. A company with lots of money can weather a boycott longer than people stay committed. A company with massive market share cannot be effectively boycotted. Look at Nestle, constantly being boycotted but they’re rich enough and diversified enough to ignore the boycotts. This isn’t a lack of conviction of the consumer, it’s a fundamental property of the system.

    Then if they get better lawyers you make better law. There are several examples of an eternal cat and mouse chase in the modern world

    You keep trying to put bandaids on a gushing wound. We’ve shown beyond any doubt that the bandaids are incapable of keeping up.

    I want to own my own things and I want to own whatever factories I spent money constructing. My personal property. And to stop me from abusing my workers or whatever there can be laws that stop me

    I want my own things and don’t want anyone to siphon enough money from the value created by others to afford constructing a factory. No one earns that much money. Those fortunes come from being a parasite.
