I won't be coming to visit you. So long as you elect and recommend people such as your US Senators, elect mobsters such as your immediate past governor, and lay claim to anti-liberty people such a those staffing the third greatest symbol of freedom in the entire history of the Earth. Suffice it to be said that we could argue which is greater, the US Capitol or the Statue of Liberty, the White House would be # 3.

Oh, yeah, I am missing a very important conference. My business will suffer because I can't be there. Missing the Las Vegas International Convention in March due to my standards of giving money to anyone who would support Senator Harry Reid, either.

Fire the bums if you want any of my money.

This from someone in the real estate business. Hilarious. The state will be happy not to have you!

I'm sure they'll take note of your concern and reconsider their positions.

Those seem like very poor business decisions to me. If you keep going that route, soon you won't have any states left in which to conduct business. You could dredge up something bad about all 50.

I wouldn't boycott an entire state. My state has had it's share of corrupt politicians and much of their votes came from New Orleans, hot bed of corruption, and from the dead rising from their graves to vote, mostly in New Orleans. In state elections, cities with dense populations can get corrupt politicians elected even if the geographical majority of the state did not vote for them.

YOU GOT THE POINT PERFECTLY... Its a terrible business decision, but once upon a time in America, integrity and courage to stand for something had value.

If my dollars are going to the benefit of something I don't believe in, then it may cost me. Simply the price of freedom.
