any religious or political leanings of any company with regard to their purchases. I think this is all a right-wing scam, promoted mostly by Faux News and talk radio (for profit).

It's just as ridiculous that officers of corporations openly advertise their politics and religion (Home Depot comes to mind from years ago) to promote sales.

These practices worsen the already terrible divisiveness in our nation.....
