I sense that business is becoming a leader in destroying our liberty in general through promotion of international groupings like the EU and so on and by opposing freedom for conservative religious groups guaranteed by the First Amendment.
Corporatism is a problem and its influencing all major political parties and governments in the world.
That’s why I support UKIP and Nigel Farage.....
I agree. It’s also why I’ve come to see the corporatist/Chamber-of-Commerce wing of the GOP to be every bit an enemy as the lib Dems and their loathesome agenda. Every bit an enemy to everything I believe and value.
I’ve made a massive shift to avoiding as much commerce as I can with these large American corporations, as they’ve increasingly cast their lot with the deviant homo-fascists and their attacks on religious liberty. Doing everything I can to buy only local and small-business product.
The issue that you raise is something that started when corporations started developing community outreach departments (or something similar). From that point on, they started introducing people into the company structure who thought that social work/social policy was just as important as the true function of the company (i.e. to offer a product or service at a competitive price). When corporations ditch the “social work” departments and staff, then they can focus on their true function.
IOW, BSA "leaders" voted to preserve their jobs rather than stand against evil.
Since then, membership has declined and individual donations are down sharply. I was getting calls from my local Council at least once a week begging for cash until I told them to go pester the Sodomites.
