Netflix says it will rethink its investment in Georgia if ‘heartbeat’ abortion law goes into effect
Glad to see Netflix standing up for women's rights .
I'm sure another pro choice state would happily take their business https://www.cnbc.com/2019/05/28/netf...aw-stands.html
Is Netflix really so eager to lose half of their paying customers? Any business taking sides on politics is stupid and shows very poor judgment.

Reason: CURSE YOU TYPOS!!!
So you are in favor of Congress enacting laws to punish Netflix?
As I recall it was Netfix's decision to wade into the vile cesspool of America's political affairs.
Netflix would like to economically batter and bruise the good people of Georgia because they have a political disagreement with them, but two can play that game.
Since when is an international airport the purview of someone's flaky-ass city council?
Well, seeing as how the airport is owned by the City of San Antonio, the City Council might have some say in what goes on there.
Granted...there is ne'er the brain surgeon nor rocket scientist to be found on the San Antonio City Council. Most of them, in fact, are city councilmen primarily because nobody else will hire them, on account of their severe mental deficits.
But...as stupid as the lot of them collectively are, they still get to call the shots at the San Antonio International Airport.
As stupid as any such decisions may be. And, boy...was the Chick-fil-A decision ever stupid.
Congress can enact laws to make Netflix pay extra taxes or make them conform to campaign finance regulations. I'm sure stock-holders won't mind reduced profits as Netflix spends $Millions extra for compliance.
How would campaign finance relate to a decision not to do business in a particular state. They are not contributing to anyone's campaign, just deciding not to do business in Georgia due to the laws Georgia is passing.

It is free choice if a business does not want to make movies in a particular state. Their reasons don't have to be to your liking.

Netflix will gain supporters too--those of us who care about a woman's choice. I applaud them for having the guts to stand up for what they believe in.
Netflix isn't going anywhere. But, if they do, its their choice. I'll vote with my wallet, too, if it comes down to it. Most companies have been wise to stay out of the abortion debate.
