Don't buy from Tractor Supply Company (TSC)
youtube ^ | June 23, 2024 | Benny Johnson

If you're a small town or rural consumer, you might find this of interest.

It's a 13-minute youtube video show how this corporation is taking you dollars to support people and causes you might find personally or morally repugnant, or to stockholders in larger dividends.

“Home Depot is leftist? Interesting. I always thought it was right-of-center.”

The founders sure as hell are...right of center! 10% military discount!

Up 350% in last seven years.

Up 21% in last 12 months.

-19% in the last week.

I guess when people found out, they started reacting. Back during the time you cite, nobody realized they were supporting leftist causes.

If there’s a Murdochs in your area, you should check that out.

There was once a hardware chain called Hechingers. The founder was rabidly anti-gun.

It is now defunct.

...it seems like Franklin, TN is almost like Austin, TX.

How many Civil War battlefields does Austin have?

I’ve seen a lot of criticism here of ‘Jeff’s Convenience Store’ (Amazon); but it’s a brilliant concept and very useful for a lot of us who are older, don’t get out easily, etc. And the critics forget that many, many small, private, American vendors/businesses sell there.

Yes, and isn’t it an interesting dichotomy that some of the richest capitalists are Communist sympathizers. It likely will last until they undermine and destroy the Country that gave them their opportunity and wealth. When the Commies take over they will all get a swift hard boot to their butts and they will, as the Commies insist, ‘own nothing and be happy.’

Bernie Marcus-founder of Home Depot- is a GOP guy and a Trump supporter.

It’s easy to be confused.

yes it is! YouTube in itself is a tremendous time waster.
Unless you’re learning to do home repairs of course.
But just chasing tail to hear some guy/girls “special info” ? Nope count me out. I actually have stuff to do most days.

“There’s no way to know where these leftist board members and execs are directing their money”

Certainly you can when they’re publicly traded.

not going to YouTube for a 13 minute vid. I do not have this kind of time to waste.

That's past the limit of my attention span for videos like this. I refer to read the info.

My statement was about progressive changes in those cities.   The number of War Between the States Battlefields don't have much to do with that.

“-19% in the last week.”

I take it math is not your strong suit.

-————down 8%———————

6/10 : 287

6/25 : 265

The county co-op is directly across the highway from TSC & that is where I go - friendliest, most helpful people I’ve ever met.

There’s one about twenty miles away - prices are totally out of line. A paint spray can costs $14.95 - same can, same brand at Walmart was just about $5 and change.

I’ve stated this before.. boycotting companies that don’t fit your political views is for the most part asinine... exception may be Bud Light.

If I boycotted them all I’d be naked in a field I didn’t own, starving and dying of thirst and malnutrition.

You dump one brand for another that’s probably just as bad.

I like what Tractor Supply has use them often. When they stop having what I need I’ll move on.

Yep. Longer vids mean more revenue. I spot check vids now if I’m interested in it. If you skip to minute 7 or 8 of a ten minute video you are usually pretty close. Some vids are excellent and worth the time. Too many are just padding.

A simple Internet search for Company X and LGBT usually yields lots of horrid content.

They support perversion and are proud of it.

Karma will get them. It always does.
