Enough people would have to get involved to make it a profit and/or image issue. If everyone starts checking labels and looking for alternatives (such as buying used) that could be sufficient to hit them in the pocketbook where it hurts.
What irks me is that the first sign of economic recovery thats being watched for is the increased consumption of goods, from you-know-where.
