11. Eat at a Mexican Restaurant not run by caucasians.

Many in my area are owned by the same family, and I suspect they operate as an "underground railroad" for illegal immigrants (frequent new "foreign" faces with little english skills).

I'd rather give my money to them instead of some dickhead who would prefer to screw over his employees than provide for them.
