Soon We Won't be Able to Shop Anywhere, Drink Anything or Eat Anything

 Bud Light seemed to step in a pile of poop when they put a transgender on their can to celebrate the dude's "365 days of being a woman".  So stupid.  First off he's not a woman and never will be.  Secondly it seemed totally out of touch from the folks who drink Bud Light by the case, NASCAR folks, country folks who fish, hunt, drive trucks and appreciate a Clydesdale horse.  The backlash was pretty swift and Bud Light is being left on the shelves of stores all across the country.

The following week it Target who stepped in the pile.  They have a whole section of clothing aimed at little kids who are gender confused.  They even make a swim suit for a little boy who thinks he might be a girl.  It has a pouch to tuck his wiener into that hides it better.  When you see the freak who designed all this stuff it was just too much.  So the boycott of Target started.

Yesterday we read a blurb published by Charlie Kirk that Chick Fillet has an office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.  So here we have a Christian company that used to be closed on Sunday's, succumbing to the WOKE culture.  Charlie is recommending that Christians no longer give their money to Chick Fillet.

And how about Ford and their rainbow truck ad catering to the LGBTQ?

We can't eat, drink or shop at most places if we wanted to avoid giving our dollars to WOKE companies.  

Where does it all end?

Today I received an email from Nationwide Insurance and Investments addressed to Financial Advisors, such as myself, that was titled, The same but different: Financial planning with LGBTQ clients

So now do I go and cancel all my Nationwide contracts?

Despite progress towards equality, discrimination remains a reality for 

LGBTQ individuals. Some is ongoing and some is a shadow from the 

past. Believe it or not, it was only in June 2020 that the U.S. Supreme 

Court finally confirmed that federal protection against workplace 

discrimination applies to all LGBTQ individuals under the Civil Rights 

Act of 1964.2

Although discrimination affecting LGBTQ people, and its impacts, is 

hard to map and quantify, financial professionals should be aware that 

LGBTQ clients are likely to have experienced discrimination of one 

form or another. This discrimination in turn, particularly discrimination 

in the workplace, has resulted in negative financial ramifications in the 

lives of countless LGBTQ individuals.

As an example, workplace discrimination 

often means LGBTQ clients have 

inconsistent employment histories and 

limited opportunities for professional 

advancement. There’s evidence that lesbian 

women and gay men earn significantly less 

than their heterosexual counterparts. 

Even brief gaps in pay can over time create 

wide disparities thanks to the power of 

compounding. The opportunity cost of each 

dollar not earned and saved in one year is a 

dollar that can’t compound gains and grow 

in every year that follows. 

LGBTQ individuals have formed communities primarily in places 

most welcoming to them. These areas are most commonly large 

metropolitan cities where non-discrimination ordinances offer 

protections around housing, employment, and essential services. As 

it often happens, maintaining primary residences in large cities comes 

with higher costs of living.

Higher expenses for housing, health care, insurance and other 

essentials can alter the financial planning equation. That includes 

day-to-day costs that may limit how much LGBTQ individuals can save 

today and higher future costs of living that require bigger retirement 

accounts down the road.

Gag and gag again.  The article reports that there are 3 million LGBTQ folks in America.  There are 350,000,000 Americans so that is less than 1%!  So why the heck are the companies bending over backwards to cater to the 1% while risking disenfranchising the 99%??

It's a great question! 

We believe it has something to do with the CEO's and their boards who make decisions.  Many of them are very highly compensated and many of their company's major shareholders are investment firms like Blackrock, Shearson Lehman and other Wall Street firms.  Those companies are all about money and the love of money.  When you start worshipping money (Mammon) then you can't worship God.  When you don't worship God you are prone to being given over to the devil and his delusional lies.

So what happens to us when Cub, Walmart, Chevy, Ford, Dodge, Target, McDonalds, Subway, Tractor Supply and every other store we use goes totally WOKE?  Where will we shop?  How will we keep track of it all of who and why we are supposed to boycott?

Supposedly there is a App for that!  We haven't checked into yet but we've seen it advertised on some conservative sites so will get back to you when we find out.

In the meantime, keep the joy of the Lord.  Everything is going to work out fine because we win in the end!!
