True, they aren't going to give their money away for free or support a party that's controlled by environmentalist groups who is into excessive regulations but they do pay all their workers very well and they contribute a small fortune in state and local taxes and help keep the price of gas lower than average in our region. A boycott isn't going to hurt them as much as it's going to the employees who manufacture those products and the people who stock, load and transport those products and the people who work at the stores that sell those products(02-04-2017, 10:16 PM)Eric the Green Wrote:(02-04-2017, 10:11 PM)Marypoza Wrote: Soros=- Koch Bros, 2 sides of the same shitty coin.
Don't buy GA/Pacific shit
I don't know what "Don't buy GA/Pacific shit" means; but no, they are not 2 sides of the same coin. But I know you hate Soros because he supported Hillary. Hillary is on the right side, mostly, so I don't mind. The system is what is wrong; if Hillary had won she would have appointed a justice who would have legalized taking money out of politics. Because Trump won we are stuck with it for another generation. I just care about the truth and what causes what, you know. I can see beyond my resentments over my losing candidates and just see which ones are likely to make things better and which are not. The Supreme Court opened up this System, and all 5 justices who approved the Citizens United money-in-politics permission decision were appointed by Republican presidents, and all 4 justices who opposed it were appointed by Democratic presidents. Trump gets another pick, and it remains 5-4 in favor of Soros, the Koch Brothers, and all those guys giving as much money to as many politicians as they bleepin please.
-- the Koch Bros own GA/Pacific. Ppl whine bcuz the Koch's have $ & they (ie, we) don't. But we do have $ (just not as much as thr Koch's) & we shoiuldn"t give them any of ours by buying GA/Pacific such as Angel Soft & quilted Northern, Brawney & Sparkle towels, Dixie cups, Spectrum paper, to name a few
No l don't hate Soros (not worth the effort) but he is subvertng grassroots efforts, astroturfing them for his own agenda, same as the the Koch's, & l don"t like that. 1% ain't gonna give us shit, or maybe that's all they'll give us.
$hillary's ln the right side alright. I support lefties
