Yes. And that’s why I not only don’t want things to go any more socialist than they already are, I want to pull back the socialism we already have in place.
Also, since “what’s good for the goose is good for the gander” I hate to see any government entity threatening a business over its support (or lack thereof) for certain private entities. I can picture the governor of California or New York threatening some conservative business-owner because he refuses to support Planned Parenthood or the United way.
As much as I personally would like to see Delta Airlines’ bottom-line suffer, I don’t think it is proper for that suffering to come at the hands of the government.
There are scads and scads of such “localization favors” going on all over the land.
This seems great until there’s a spat between interests.
