The conservative free speech dilemma

Unfortunately, most people do not realize they are funding the LEFT and, therefore, their own destruction.

Heck that is part of the problem...there are a LOT of things that fund leftism, some are obvious, and some aren’t.

Buying a Microsoft product is one of the best examples. This is nothing specific against Microsoft as you can see from the list below, I am just using them as part of a larger example of things we buy and use but don’t support who the corporation financially supports.

This is a list of the top twenty donors to The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation that I put together from their own website (This may be stale info, it was one or two years ago)

*Microsoft
*Apple
*Exxon Mobile (Exxon Mobile gave over $269 million in 2014)
*GE
*Soros Fund Management
*GAP
*State Street
*Car Max
*Johnson & Johnson
*Boeing
*Chevron
*Disney
*Google
*The Home Depot
*JP Morgan
*Merck
*Starbucks
*State Farm
*Verizon

************************************************
If you patronize ANY of the vendors above, you are providing direct financial support to them via the products you buy. The Bill and Melinda Gates foundation supports (in huge dollar amounts) the entities below, which I as a conservative, deplore:

*World Health Organization
*The Global Fund to Fight AIDS
*United States Fund for UNICEF
*International Bank for Reconstruction and Development
*UNICEF Headquarters
*Clinton Health Access Initiative Inc
*International Development Association
*CARE
*World Health Organization Nigeria Country Office
*Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa
*United Nations Foundation
*Population Services International
