Ha! This is way too funny. It proves that nobody can be PC enough.

[E. V. Republitarian MD]

A mutual fund company that invests only in businesses it deems socially responsible.

That has got to be the STUPIDEST investment strategy ever known in the history of mankind. Everyone of the "investors" (and I use the term loosely) in that fund needs to be sent a copy of Atlas Shrugged, The Wealth of Nations, and Basic Economics by Thomas Sowell.

Sometimes I really think I went to sleep one night and magically woke up in Bizarro World... honestly.

What a bunch of PC weenies! LOL.

"Founded in 1971, the Pax World Funds family includes holdings in companies that sell goods and services which fund managers feel improve the quality of health care, technology, housing, food, education, pollution control, utilities and leisure activities."

Alcohol certainly improves the quality of my leisure activities. What's Pax World Funds' problem?!

[unixfox]

God wanted man to be happy that's way he invented beer! And liquor!

[Syncro]

They seem to be emulating these fanatics

If I were ever trapped in their WeenieWorld, it'd take me about 17 seconds to go completely postal.

I bet these pansies ride those nancyboy lay-down bicycles, too.

[mhking]

I don't have a problem with that...

Just call me when you buy your next bottle...

Just damn.

If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

[Billthedrill]

Well, they haven't made any money over the last five years, but they feel great about themselves...

[AntiGuv]

Pax World has the right to invest however it makes them happy. Since liquor violates their policy, then good for them for sticking by it.

Me, I'm more of a Vice Fund kind of guy..

[Vision]

I've had the liqueur, it's wonderful

[countess]

Pax World Funds, a Portsmouth, N.H.-based fund family, steers clear of companies involved in defense or weapons, tobacco, liquor or gambling.

Coffee is just as addictive as tobacco and liquor, and playing the stock market is really no different than gambling. But I'm sure they feel self-righteous and all that.

[New Orleans Slim]

Oddly, I now have a reason to go to Starbucks ...

[steveegg]

But if a company comes along that is involved in "medicinal" marijuana, they'll plow everything they got into it.
