Use this list of corporations and web site links to further research where your dollars are going.

Most of these names and links were added prior to the November 2004 election. Since that time many other fine sites have come online, and sites like BuyBlue.org have spearheaded efforts to make consumers aware of the potentially damage done by spending their dollars with corporations who turn around and give those dollars to the BushCo machine.

Use this list as a starting point, not a be-all and end-all. Do your own cost-benefit analysis. You may find a company's treatment of its employees outweighs its political contributions (good or bad).

Ask questions. That's part of what makes you an evil liberal, and it drives the righties absolutely nuts.
