Well, if a baker can be sent to jail for not baking a cake for some lesbians, and an innkeeper can be fined for not letting lesbians fornicate at his inn, and a church can be made to fund abortions, what’s to stop Walmart from being FORCED to build and do business in an area that demands a certain minimum wage? I know, I know, completely different scenarios, but it seems to be the same kind of logic: don’t do what the PC/government/dictator wants, and you’ll be forced to.
Not really. If gov't can force people to buy a product (health insurance), and religions can be forced to go against their basic tenets, and businesses can be forced to serve a certain clientele ... forcing a company to do business in a certain area is an easy stretch.
Speaking for myself, I'd not want to patronize a business who was being forced to work with me. But, that's just me, I'm smarter than your average gov't bureaucrat.
