I wish more businesses would simply be that. A business. I don't want to hear about your moral superiority, because it's a race with no finish line. I don't care what a burger joint's position on world economics is, you sell burgers. I don't care what the tech industry has to say about immigration, you sell software. Nor Nike when they just sell shoes, or Coca-Cola when they just sell soda. Chick-fil-A shouldn't be selling traditional values and Oreo shouldn't sell gay rights. Shut up and sell your product. And guess what, it's far less controversial that way. Let people cast their vote, not corporations.
