13. It's a small start

You would think that these corporations would realize that giving to one party or stopping giving to that party would piss of a sizeable portion of our country since we're so polarized (thank you Fux "News" and Rush(ian) "Agent" Limpbaugh). Really the only way a corporation can avoid pissing off a chunk of the public will be to stop all political contributions to any politician. Sure, they would lose their tax breaks and sweetheart deals, but that loss could be made up for in more sales.

Look at Goya and how they hurt their sales. They are actually having to donate their unsold items to Ukraine so they don't go to waste.
