    The way things are, one cannot sneeze (or pay taxes) without the money going to support things that go against our religious beliefs.
    That leaves us with a few choices.
    Leave and find a country where we have choices. (does one exist?)
    Refuse to obey the government, pay nothing, buy nothing, own nothing because somehow, it will tie back to something that supports a cause we do not support.
    Do what we can to avoid knowingly supporting things that go against our beliefs whenever possible and legal.
    Or just don't worry about it, it's impossible to avoid.

    Guess what everyone does is up to them. Wonder which one is the one we SHOULD do, or if I even thought of it?

    I had this idea one time that if the democrats and republicans realized that the corporations are stealing them all blind with the help of both parties they might put all their slings and arrows aside long enough to become a united voice and this problem would go away pronto.

    Since then I've come to the conclusion the democrats and republicans would much rather go on hating each other than save the country.

    I'm quite sure now Americans will fight until the bitter end. With each other. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eInuuLp1Dw

    Why ask why?

    Why not ask why all these companies are supporting Planned Parenthood instead? Personally, I think it's . . . well you already know what I think it is.

    Doesn't look like one can own a computer, or software for it, without some of that money going to planned parenthood.

    Perhaps the evangelicals are better off in their efforts to stop abortion, than buying into some ineffective boycott.

    There is one way to protest all that is going on that will not have an effect on your everyday life. Go ahead and plan ahead for a boycott that will get the attention of the powers that be. On a set date, schedule a week where we ALL buy nothing. Now before you panic, remember that I said prepare for this week by stocking up on all your needs for the coming boycott week. This week must be coordinated among all Conservative Christian Groups so as to make an effect for our cause.

    When the week arrives, go to work, school, church, vacation, in other words, continue your life as usual, but for that week do not buy anything, no gas, no food, no clothes, and no online purchases. Continue to Pay your rent, make your mortgages, pay your utilities, and pay your loans. Just stay away form the marketplace for one week.

    No Marching on Washington, no rioting in the streets, and no need to do without as you will have stocked up on the necessary items before your boycott.

    Trust me, even though you have prepared, all these retail outlets will be very troubled if there are no sales for a week and they are having to flip the bill for their overhead while their stores are open for business and no one is there but employees they have to pay.

    If it does not make an impact (it will), do it again in 3 months and repeat it until SOMEONE WAKES UP!

    Thanks for the good info Crabby, I will post this on my fridge to make sure I don't support Planned Parenthood, the most evil organization I know. Good work.

    Did you all see how much Warren Buffet gave to abortive organizations?
