Hot topics... Controversial Issues
You would think that in today's social climate that companies and businesses would refrain for getting caught up in sensitive controversial issues.
Time and time again companies, or more accurately their owners or executives openly support one side of a hot controversial issue... which has proven to be a no win situation for that company.
And while it's hard to understand why local businesses like restaurants would express support for one side of an issue, knowing that there will be negative ramifications for their actions by those on the other side of an issue... So why would large companies do this?
Given that almost every issue has considerable support on either side of any issue, it would seem foolish to alienate any group which could adversely affect your business. Lost business and revenues, and in some cases even having picketing and demonstrations outside their businesses and affecting then negatively.
So why... Why would any business or company choose not to remain neutral to avoid problems?
You would think that they would be smarter.
