A number of top executives and corporate leaders gathered online this weekend to discuss what to do in response to changes to some state voting laws, according to multiple news reports.

The Washington Post reported that more than 100 leaders, including executives from major airlines, retailers and manufacturers — plus at least one NFL owner — talked about potential ways to show they opposed the legislation, which has already been signed into law in Georgia and is being considered elsewhere. That includes halting donations to politicians who support the bills and even delaying investments in states that pass the restrictive measures, according to Jeffrey Sonnenfeld, a Yale management professor and one of the organizers.

We need a list of these anti-American bastards. I sold what stock I had in Coke last week and will not knowingly do business with any of these sons of bitches!

[JonPreston]

I down to two local businesses left to shop at: Dino’s pizzeria and Max’s Men Shop.

Useful idiots.

They are all invested in China, one way or another.

Or, as Mussolini liked to call it: Corporativismo

Coke is a poster boy for how screwed up the markets are. In last 10 years net income at Coke has dropped from 12.5 billion to 7.7 billion, yet their market cap has gone from 150 billion to 229 billion.

Go ahead. Just show me which other companies get to join Delta, United, American and Woca Cola on the boycott list.

And they all go out in public from time to time.

Corporations, Specifically Multinationals, Hate Capitalism – Understand That Point and Things Make Sense

April 11, 2021 | Sundance

Boy howdy is there a disconnect amid the outlook of most ‘conservatives’ when it comes to corporations and capitalism.   This tweet is a great place to recognize the distinction between the objectives of multinational corporations and their hatred of capitalism.

First, they were not “corporations” on the call, that is not an accurate description.  The assembly was a group of “multinationals” discussing their objectives, goals and outlooks on politics.  There is a difference between an ordinary corporation and a multinational corporation.  Multinationals hate capitalism.

When I say most multinational corporations hate capitalism many people look confused.

Let me help by sharing a short video that explains why:

Top Three Common Myths of Capitalism | Learn Liberty

The first myth busted in that video explains why corporations do not like capitalism.  That’s why Big Tech is also against capitalism.

Multinationals want control; some call that corporatism…. but the names are moot.  Multinationals want control, and capitalism does not allow them control; that is why multinationals do not want capitalism.  Multinationals use lobbyists to generate regulations that stall competition.

Multinationals do not want competition; they are, by nature of their interest, anti-capitalists.

This misunderstanding is everywhere.

"Lost its way", good grief @mercedesschlapp
 you could not be more wrong.  The U.S. CoC has been a multinational advance group since 1984, representing the interests of Wall Street & working on a globalist agenda.  They *NEVER DID* represent the American Worker. And YOU know THAT!

The multinationals were petrified of two words that underpinned President Trump's agenda: "America First" 

Those two words were kryptonite to the agenda of Wall Street's multinational corporations.  With trillions at stake, everyone & everything was activated to destroy Trump.

Mussolini style! These fools should stay away from balconies, and their mistresses should leave them.

[Bodega]

80 million of us can vote AGAINST these anti-American LIEberal/Socialist/Fascist/Marxist/Communist/Democrat businesses by not patronizing them!

Let’s Roll!
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Thanks for the list. Walmart is the only one that I have patronized recently and have recently started shopping at other local stores.

[pfflier]

It sounding like they are a self appointed aristocracy who don’t want the peons to have the power.

[Vision]

CEO’s demand vote fraud!

[RAldrich]

They’re figuring Biden will give them lots of tax exemptions and subsidies. (The taxes in his new plans mean nothing to these guys - they have all sorts of ways of getting around them. Amazon doesn’t pay any taxes at all.)

[central_va]

CEO’s are always right just ask any Republican in Congress. /sarcasm

[FreedomPoster]

Anyone here should have been boycotting Levi’s 2 decades ago over the anti-2A actions of the family members and foundations, who are still heavily invested in the company.
