Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

These companies/people give a lot of money to todays' statist politicians. A little thing: watching where money goes, by a lot of people, can make a big difference.
There are a few lists on the internet. Below, I took the lists and consolidated. I kept the lists of Entertainers short and just included the worst-of-the-worst.
Near the end, I identify Conservative alternates.
One twist I added was to include the most liberal and most conservative MLB, NFL, NBA & NHL sport team owners.
If you have some corrections, let me know. I'd like to keep a 'master list' updated.

Kohl’s? Owned by family of liberal Senator Kohl from Wisconsin. I was in the store once and I heard over the loudspeaker some liberal cause to support.
I could care less if the sports team I root for is owned by a person who holds my political views.
Ragoo?
I buy it all the time.
Must be an old list. Ted Turner does not own the Braves. Hasn’t for quite awhile.
ping for later.
Very good. Thank you.
Thank goodness some of my favorite products are manufactured by conservative owners.
Tell us why we should boycott each of those companies.
Tell us why we ahould support each of the other companies.
Lever2000?!?! Say it aint so!
Kohl’s has really gone downhill lately anyway. The last 3 times I’ve been in one, I couldn’t find any decent shirts with pockets. I guess that in the thrust to push non-smokers, they forgot that we use shirt pockets for something besides cigarettes.
Good to know that it’s owned by the family of a liberal senator. I’ll stop going there for good.
You forgot the Trusts and Foundations.. and other contributors to pBS...
“Must be an old list...”
I agree. Actor Ron Silver has been dead since March of ‘09.
Well, you don’t have to do anything with this list.
These people use their money and influence to support leftists. If I can, I will chose an alternative as to where to spend my money.
I know it’s not a big thing. But, if many of us consider principles when supporting or not supporting a company, it will make some sort of difference.
Yep. I consolidated info. from a lot of sources.
I just changed my master list to remove the deceased Ron Silver, and also removed Kohl’s.
mmm. I care. You don’t have to.
