Abstract

Hussain claims that ethical consumers are subject to democratic requirements of morality, whereas ordinary price/quality consumers are exempt from these requirements. In this paper, we demonstrate that Hussain's position is incoherent, does not follow from the arguments he offers for it, and entails a number of counterintuitive consequences.
