bull****. why should i give my money to someone who is going to turn

around
and use it to support a candidate or organization that i do not support

or
worse detest.
i know it is next to impossible to know where every business i patronize
puts their money, but at least when i do know, i can make an informed
decision.

that's my story, and i'm stickin to it!


By your reasoning above, if I was your employer and found out that you
were giving money to a candidate that I do not support or worse detest, I
should deny you any raises or even fire you.
In "at will" states I would have that option (though I'd probably have to
give another reason). It may be legal, but is it "right"?

Hm.....so, if you find out that one of your local shopkeepers contributes
regularly to the White Aryan Resistance, do you make a point of patronizing
his or her establishment in order to protect all of our rights?

and lest anyone should protest the use of a violent extremist group for
illustrative purposes, i'd bet a shiny new nickel that he or she was not
vacationing in or near baghdad a year ago today.
