I find this action by Dick’s, hiring lobbyists, to be inexplicable. If they want to stop selling guns, stop selling guns. But to hire lobbyists is in essence getting into a different business for them. Those lobbyists do not come cheap. And Dick’s Sporting Goods is a brick-and-mortar retailer that is going to have to start selling more and more Chinese crap if it wants to maintain margins. So for them to spend 250000 or $400,000 on lobbyists is absurd.
double down on stupid...
Seriously, could the CEO of this company be a bigger Dick?
