Retail business is at the mercy of the consumer. We should not shop where it conflicts with our political ideology. The NY Times is a great example of the consumer playing havoc with a companies stock value for these reasons.

If you do not shop there and others do the same, the company will eventually get the message from its stock holders and change will come.

Vote with your wallet. Companies take us for granted and seek new sources of revenue, such as the buying power of the illegals and their supporters.

Concerning WalMart, thats a bit silly.
Are they to refuse Mexicans in the store?

Walmart is not supporting liberal causes, as Ben and Jerry's, or Starbucks, or a host of other leftist companies.

LOL, thanks for the laugh. I shop where the product I need at the moment is located and for the best price. I do not have the time nor the inclination to look up every company's political ideology before I make my decision on purchasing a product. If you do, you've got too much time on your hands. Go read a book or do something else productive.
