US consumers can do something about NK.?

An all out war between NK and SK is pointless and would have devastating affects on the world economy. Since China is supporting NK with fuel and food, why don't US CONSUMERS boycott Chinese goods until they agree to intervene? Isn't it time that we stop funding NK buy helping China's economy? I suggest that people contact companies like Walmart that have huge contracts with Chinese factories. Putting economic pressure might just end the silliness that we have been dealing with for decades.

Update:

Lets face it, NK is a thorn in China's side and in ours. Both of our countries stand to gain if NK is brought under some kind of control. If China wants to be recognized as a economic or world power, then they have to grow up and decide which is more important. Funding an unstable government or losing their economic base.

Update 2:

I do know that there have been many many incidents. I have been to the DMZ but now we are not talking about things like the ax incident in the 1970's. So far this year, a ship has been sunk and an island attacked. The incidents are getting more serious as time goes by.

    Intervene in what? Would you like me to recite a list of cross-border shooting incidents over the last 57 years? It's a long one.

    There is nothing particularly unique about this latest round.
