4. I hate these fuckers. First they reverse Roe v Wade...

Now they are going after contraception. Then they'll want to take our right to vote away. What next?

You give them an inch and they take a mile. I am so disappointed in Costco (I'm not even a member but have heard good things about them.)

The coalition also told Costco that contributing to abortion access was bad for the company’s bottom line because it stands to make more money from bigger families.


Christian firm Inspire Investing*, calling on the company not to carry mifepristone and reminding Costco that they have a combined $56 million in company stock.

*Biblically Responsible Investing

Sounds like a trump style threat.

Inspire Investing was also behind a petition last year that collected signatures from more than 6,000 Costco members opposed to the store carrying the abortion pill.

Ross told Bloomberg that ADF will now shift its focus to getting mifepristone out of Walgreens and CVS, which both announced last year they were dispensing the medication at their pharmacies in most states where abortion remains legal. Both have a much larger pharmacy footprint than Costco.


FUCK NO TO THESE XTIAN PIGS. from the guy who started Inspire:

... but the moral aspect of an investment portfolio – with biblical morals as the compass.

I had heard of socially responsible investing (SRI), which I associated with a rather narrow view of issues managed from a progressive liberal viewpoint. Being a Bible-believing Christian, such an approach did not resonate with my values and I never gave it much attention.

But, it had never crossed my mind to consider the moral implications of investment decisions from a biblical perspective, and my curiosity was piqued.
