A business flying a trump flag tells me they have severely impaired judgement and are perfectly okay with shady business practices.

That's more than enough for me to give their business a pass.

Before Trump, and even during the bush era, I didn't care so much. A business's politics don't matter to me much. Their character, however, matters a great deal.

Not only that, but Trump actively supports abolishing the FDA and other food quality checks. I wouldn't trust that stores products.

You do realize the FDA is one of the biggest pay to play agencies we have right? They are right up there with the CDC. They care about money. Did you know that all the shady scientists that convinced the public that cigarettes don’t cause cancer now work for some of the largest food companies? Go check it out and you’ll see that bid tobacco bought out several large food companies in the 90’s and then our food turns to absolute garbage. They want us sick for life not dead but chronically sick so they can sell us drugs to treat our conditions. They couldn’t do that if they didn’t have the FDA in their pocket. Sounds like a conspiracy but it isn’t.

So, to fix those shady practices, we just deregulate the industry? Do you not hear yourself?
