I don’t know why I’d want to punish a business for the actions of a state government. The business is likely being punished enough simply by virtue of being located there. For all I know, I could be moving $ from a company with fairly conservative values to another company that’s backing Democrats 100%.

If you’re using any free email service, Amazon, or utilizing network routes in most of the US, you’re using products by EMC (Massachusetts) and Level 3 Communications (New York), respectively. EMC is the largest provider of network storage (SAN and NAS) in the world. I’ve been in IT for over 20 years and have yet to see a company using SAN storage other than EMC.

While there are some companies we can avoid, there are others so ingrained in our day-to-day that avoiding them would mean removing yourself from a large chunk of society.

If you/your family qualify as members, USAA is a simple choice.

I think it is the COMPANY we need to look at, not the state they are in.

If they are supporting dems then withdraw your bizness

We need a list of libtard-leaning businesses

Already have our insurance in a gun-friendly state. General Casualty Company and American Family are both in Wisconsin. :-)

Where do the stock holders of your new insurance company live? Who administers your pension plan and do they hold any insurance stocks? All insurance companies engage in reinsurance. That’s a risk limitation practice where they parcel out their risk among a pool of companies. Does your new insurance company reinsure through Travelers, The Hartford, Metropolitan, etc.?

Just some thoughts about the futility of boycotts in such an interconnected industry. I worked for several Fortune 100 insurance companies. In many states one of them handled the business under the name of the other one that wasn’t licensed In thise states. When you buy insurance you really have no idea who you’re doing business with.

That's $50K over 10 years that won't be going to a gun grabber state now.

If I can get 20,000 '2A' defenders to join me, we can easily shift 1 TRILLION DOLLARS of revenue to '2A' gun friendly states.

Wouldn't that come out to merely 1 BILLION DOLLARS over ten years?

I’m with Mutual of Omaha. Dumb luck I guess. This is a very good idea. Hope it has legs.

FR is located in libtard-controlled California.
You need to stop posting on here and resign your membership.

Check where DU is located.
If it’s in a red state, you should become a member and donate.

Makes as much sense as what you’re proposing with regard to insurance companies.
