Top Execs of 180 Companies: Abortion Necessary to Be Successful in Business

[dilbert firestorm]

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2...l-in-business/

The top executives of more than 180 companies have signed a letter that says abortion is essential in order for people to be successful in their businesses.

“When everyone is empowered to succeed, our companies, our communities and our economy are better for it,” the executives say in the letter posted on a newly launched website titled “Don’t Ban Equality.”

“Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health, independence and economic stability of our employees and customers,” they said, adding:

Simply put, it goes against our values and is bad for business. It impairs our ability to build diverse and inclusive workforce pipelines, recruit top talent across the states, and protect the well-being of all the people who keep our businesses thriving day in and out.

some of those companies are a bunch of hypocrits.

Never heard of most of them. How many are Fortune 500 firms?

You do know anyone can incorporate a shell company and call him/herself a CEO, right?

"LESBIANS WHO TECH"??

Oh yeah.... everyone knows them - not!

Lol!

[dilbert firestorm]

yeah, lots of no-name "who?" companies

at least they make it a good reference to boycott those companies if they ever make the big time.

as I mentioned some of the notable names on the list are hypocrites as they do business in countries where abortion is restricted or illegal.

[FriscoKiddo]

I'm probably sure some of the large companies in the Third Reich (Krupp, I.G Farben, Siemens, etc) thought eugenics and abortion were instrumental in their workforces too.

[Levianon17]

What the message behind this stupidity is if a female employee becomes pregnant she'll be less productive and may need time off during the pregnancy and after the baby is born. It's better for the company and it's greedy heartless practices if she just gets an abortion.

not to mention that the women get paid less for the same type of work the men do.

[gnadfly]

The only people I use is Redbox. I've shot a email to them.

[friendly fred]

These stupid fuckers would've aborted Tim Tebow - where would we be without him?

[txdot-guy]

This article is the worst kind of yellow journalism. The Don't ban equality organization states in the first paragraph,


Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health, independence and economic stability of our employees and customers. Simply put, it goes against our values and is bad for business. It impairs our ability to build diverse and inclusive workforce pipelines, recruit top talent across the states, and protect the well-being of all the people who keep our businesses thriving day in and out.


They aren't advocating for abortion. They are advocating for comprehensive reproductive care. This includes access to abortion for those that want or need the procedure.

It was redbooth, not redbox. Fuck it, let them know not to join them.

Rich Lowry supports your thesis.

yup, those business are being shortsighted.

CEOs for Abortion
https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/...ew-york-times/


Has it not occurred to these business leaders that unborn children will grow up to buy their products or work for their companies?

The CEOs contend that abortion is central to their businesses, which might be true if all of their companies had the same business model as Planned Parenthood, one of the organizers of the effort. But Bloomberg L.P., Amalgamated Bank, and H&M, to name three of the companies whose CEOs signed the ad, are hardly dependent on abortion to thrive.

The idea that abortion is necessary for the health of women is one of the most misleading pro-abortion cliches.

The implication is that these CEOs prefer that their employees and customers not become mothers, or if they are mothers, not have more children. It apparently hasn’t occurred to them that unborn children will grow up to buy their products or perhaps work for their firms one day, and indeed all the employees they claim to be protecting were themselves, once, vulnerable in the womb.

you're being disingenuous.

reproductive care is code for abortion. without that, there wouldn't be planned parenthood clinics carrying out Sanger's eugenics agenda.

[gfejunkie]

What I'd like to know is when did pregnancy become an "illness" that needs "health care"?

That looks like the new game plan. Pretend to care about the health of the women instead of being seen as advocates of killing little babies that they want the public to support rather than the parents.

Parents who do not care for their own children are worse than infidels.
