"It is unfortunate," Perkins said, "that Wal-Mart has joined forces with an organization.."
More freakin' spin. I donate to the Unted Way but I have not "joined forces" with them. Ridiculous.
Why don't people stop paying their taxes since a hell of a lot more money from taxes goes to gays than does Wal-Mart money. Come on, Janet Naird, put your holier-than-thou money where your holier-than-thou mouth is. The government gives milllions to these groups. What do you intend to do about that? You could always move to A Middle Eastern country.....please?
Correct me if I'm wrong: This comment gives the impression that you're "holier-than-thou, Janet Naird."
Some folks have blinders on unintentionally. Some folks intentionally wear their blinders proudly (rainbow colors & all). Some folks just prefer to look the other way, and hope the groups militating against them will just go away.
But with Corp America's funding, that just won't be a reality. The formula is real simple: Consumers fund Corp America, which in turns funds political & social reengineering agendas. So, the bottom line is that the consumers pay the bills.
L98Fiero had a good point with an earlier post that a good chunkified portion of our tax $ goes to gay & lesbian organizations. Therefore, John and Jane Taxpayer foot those bills as well.
There's a bit more of a higher legal pricetag for choosing to boycott your government. Folks should at least take "babysteps" of exercising consumer choices where they have them before signing up for the Olympic events.
