Eat your heart out, Jesse Jackson! You only could shake down Coca Cola for a few million in your hey-day. Eric The Red Holder can shake down corporations for billions. He’s even better at blackmail than NY’s Attorney General. Businesses are their cash cows, because businesses will pay big bucks to Democrat campaigns to keep the Chicago thugocracy from going after them next.

A few years back Jesse Jackson raised a big stink when Toyota had a commercial which included a set of teeth with the Toyota logo in gold on them. That was racist because black people are more likely to have gold-plated teeth, apparently. (I don't think the skin color of the person attached to the teeth could be determined from the ad.)

Toyota agreed to an $8 billion payoff. Some of it went to Jesse Jackson--I'm not sure how much, or whether he continues to get money each year from that settlement.

I have a Toyota which I bought before all that. It has made me very reluctant to consider buying another Toyota--I don't want to put money in Jesse Jackson's pocket.
