They were forced by customer pressure to change their policies. Changing back will just lose those who objected in the first place.

And all those good paying jobs, and excellent benefits will go away because some fee fees were hurt.

Look, i support dei. But the solution is political, not economic. You atent huting walmart, or home depot, or chick fillet by boycotting target - a company that tried to be progressive and got beat bloody.

Way to reward those on our side.

Angry? Good, take it to the polls. Dont hurt allies.
