Free to Choose - Milton Friedman. The Invisible Hand - Adam Smith. Nestle will react to market forces. If sales plummet, they'll either figure out that their otherwise tasty yogurt needs a lid or they'll drop the product from their line because it is unprofitable. "Lidlessness" problem solved either way. I like yogurt. We buy it in cheaply packaged lots of 6 or 12 in sizes that are meant for consumption of the whole in a single sitting.
"The point is that companies cut corners in developing nations, and users do not have the power of influence they do in developed nations. - Anon."
All countries are ruled by the consent of the governed. That consent may be willingly given, be finagled by deception or be coerced, but "consent" it is. Companies similarly. Ghandi's Salt March in 1930 is an example of the power that people have. I am not throwing stones. My own country is entering into ruination because people either don't care anymore or feel they are powerless to influence their "betters". I remain optimistic. In demographic terms, I do believe that good people outnumber bad people 1000 to 1, perhaps even 10,000 to 1. We have the power. Do we have the courage?

Hi Jayshree, now THIS was interesting! How many hours of research did it require?? Thanks for the effort!
lol, thanks Doug. It took me four weeks (part-time) to research, create the data analysis, and write over multiple drafts! Thank you for the feedback!
