Yes we do, if we say "hey coca Cola, we hate your bottle design we're not going to buy anymore" if people actually stop buying you better believe they'll give us a selection of designs to vote for.
Business exist becssse of the consumer and workers, workers are paid through the profit received from consumers.
When consumers realize their power a company freezes.

Edited by Andrenden: 11/6/2015 9:31:28 AMBut there's the key point. You have to stop buying it. There are people that hate something but it's still better then their competitors so they keep buying it. ie. Coke I hate your bottle! But... Pepsi tastes like shit so I'm still buying it.[spoiler]Then there's also the fact of, "Oh, you don't like our bottle? Then you don't really need our product." Then they take their business elsewhere. So at that point I really hope you like how Pepsi tastes.[/spoiler]

The consumers power is given to them by the company, the consumer shouldn't have a say in the way a business is run, share holders/board members and other employees in the company should.

Lol, for your own sake, never run a business then. You clearly just want to spin this in favor of Bungie.

Better example, Xbox one was changed to satisfy the consumers demand. They did it because the pre orders weren't high, and the audience showed the distaste in their product.

What happens when people stop buying the product? Shareholders demand a fix or they sell there shares before it drops in price, it happened with apple momentarily.
-
People will always buy the product, maybe just less people, greedy shareholders force companies to do as consumers say so they can keep raking in extra money while doing nothing for the actual company. The fact that we as humans try to get everything done our way without being the ones to do it is disgusting.

A lot of those times the greedy shareholder that directs the company for their own profit IS the company. Many CEOs and VPs get paid partially (some most of their pay) in stock. I was one of those employees, I worked for Intel. Right when stocks were about to break $30 they dipped back below $28... Thats hundreds of thousands of dollars to some of these board member types with thousands of shares. So they announce sweeping layoffs in the US and move a bunch of manufacturing over to Israel (of all fkn places) just to keep stocks high and keep their pockets lined. I don't think they really give two shits about the company, employees, or share holders. I am SO glad to work for a non-traded private business now... Things are better when the company's decisions aren't all about stock price.
