To determine the best of any class one needs to investigate what qualties the product holds that makes it far superior to any product in the same class, the cost of the item, the labor force used to make the product, and the economic and environmental impact of our decisions. It is the responsibility of experts to determine how and where the product comes from and it is our responsibility as consumers to factor in our moral values to also determine whether we would buy the product. Seeing as we live on a resource limited planet and knowing that eventually we WILL run out of resources, I think that it is extremely important to know where the products that aren't used go, and be responsible enough as consumers to reject products that affect the global encomomy and environment.
