Maybe they are Republicans and not conservatives? Those things have been synonymous in the past, but are increasingly divergent.
You say "no" now, but earlier you wrote: "Especially so when they are breaking Florida laws. Disney still thinks they are above Florida law." How was Disney breaking the law? Please explain.
Reading comprehension a problem for you? I said I don't like Fox News either. I'll learn eventually to just not respond to posts that Do you do anything more than ask frivolous questions? This request which I am stamping with DENIAL just shows you don't have a clue about what you talk about and what you should and should not support.
The thing is that we conservatives are fighting to save the country from globalist ideals that leave the US and eventually individuals at the whims of unelected officials at home and abroad. I pulled this up from some of my reading last year. This is about 1/3 of the article: \How Big Banks Are Planning to Force Americans into the ‘Great Reset’ Trap (townhall.com) In June 2020, elites from around the world gathered to announce the launch of a plan to “reset” the entire global economy, a proposal they ominously named the “Great Reset.” Among the many world leaders and powerful institutions that pledged their support for the Great Reset at the June meeting were the International Monetary Fund, Prince Charles, the head of the United Nations, CEOs from major international corporations, and the World Economic Forum—one of the key ringleaders of the Great Reset. “Every country, from the United States to China, must participate [in the Great Reset], and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be transformed,” wrote Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum, in an article published on WEF’s website. “In short, we need a ‘Great Reset’ of capitalism.” The initial justification for the Great Reset was the COVID-19 pandemic, but from the start, supporters of the global economic overhaul repeatedly said that climate change was the long-term justification, the one that would allow a sustained, massive transformation of society. Doing nothing, they argued, would pose an “existential threat” to the human race—a completely ludicrous argument many on the left continuously make without a shred of solid scientific evidence to support the claim. Among the most important figures in the Great Reset movement are gigantic financial institutions and/or their CEOs, including Bank of America and MasterCard. Although many Great Reset supporters have called for dramatic expansions of government welfare programs, including job guarantees, government-provided health care, etc., the heart of the Great Reset is something called environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics. ESG metrics offer public policy leaders, economists, investors, and banks an entirely new way of evaluating businesses. Instead of looking at how profitable a company is, how many employees it has, its business model, and other traditional metrics, ESG adds to those concerns a whole host of left-wing causes, including how “green” a company is, having the “right” ratio of minorities, whether a business is involved in politically disfavored industries (such gun manufacturing and sales), as well as other, similar considerations. Companies are then given a score or rating to determine how well they align with ESG goals. Free markets are exactly the opposite direction we are headed with these people and their ESG score that I'd like to shove up their collective rear ends. Ron DeSantis took exactly the right action. He should have done it sooner. Florida is indeed leading the nation on fighting this smelly fiasco.
As a reminder, you still haven't provided an answer to the specific question of who puts out ESG evaluations, specifically. That is because you don't know what you are talking about on this thread. But I will give you another chance to show your knowledge on the issue: who specifically puts out ESG scores/evaluations/recommendations?
There was a special carve out that made them above the Florida laws that like kind businesses had to operate under. Now, they don't get the carve out, well starting July 1. 2023. Problem of Disney being above Florida laws solved. If Disney doesn't want to be law abiding, Colorado is beckoning any time Disney wants to pull up and move. I think Central Florida would give a collective cheer.
Sure I did, but you actually have to read more. That's your problem, not mine. On the other thread, I answered your question even though I asked you to respond to my post with links which you have still so far failed to do. Don't ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself.
We have posts numbers here. Please find the post number in which you listed some specific entities that put these scores out, or admit that you are lying (which I suspect that you are) in saying that you answered. Or answer it in your next post. Or just admit you have no clue the answer (which I suspect is true). And on the other thread, I already pointed out another of your false statements (you claimed that there was no reduction in global oil supply due to Russian sanctions and the war, which I demonstrated was false with a link). So stop deflecting on this thread.
Poster seems to support his stance on simply ... zero tangible evidence. Ron and poster.. "oh look another boogyman" Maga types never showed a strong connection to reality, hence the search for nonexistent problems to force more frivolous government upon for soundbites.
Like I said, read more and post less. Read just my posts and links I provided here. Otherwise, buzz off.
Fail. Again. You can't provide an answer. Because you don't know what you are talking about. Sorry for pointing out your ignorance on this topic. But, perhaps, you will learn more before you waste our time on a topic like this again.
Gas Prices post #95. I answered you post and you follow up post. Again, don't ask others to do what you are unwilling to do. Just to be clear, it's post #95 in the Ole Joe gas price thread. Don't worry, I know you don't know what you are talking about so I'm not holding my breath.
Yeah, I didn't ask for that. I asked you for the post number where you listed the specific entities that put out ESG scores. You know, the question you are claiming you answered on this thread. Read more.
This may be one of the dumbest posts I've read on this board! Disney abided by all laws. The carve out WAS SET UP VIA LEGISLATION, ERGO, IT'S A LAW! And don't forget that the governor and legislature changed that to punish Disney for disagreeing with the policies of the governor and legislature, who, by doing so, acted lawlessly by abridging Disney's free speech rights, which were guaranteed by the Constitution, the ultimate law! And maybe some mentally lazy Central Floridians would, as you wrote, "give a collective cheer" for Disney's exit from Florida, but most of them would change their minds when they witnessed the economic devastation such a loss would cause for not just the Orlando area, but for most of the state, especially including the Tampa Bay Area, which has a great tourism industry that draws significant numbers of tourists that would not even come to the state without Disney's existence. Again, your post above is one of the dumbest I've ever read on this board, which is saying a lot, and your other posts in this thread are only slightly above that one.
Google isn’t hard to use. ESG scores are set by companies themselves and then other entities (non regulatory) rank them based on their self evaluation.
Of course. I answered that (more specifically, it is done by financial consultancies, financial analysts, and investment banks). And he declared that wrong. So I am trying to get him to provide what he thinks is a correct answer. Thus far, he has avoided doing so.
If ESG hurts profitability do you really think investors will stick with the stock? Of course not. You seem to have little faith in capitalism and prefer Desantis style big government regulation totalitarianism.
I literally had never heard of an ESG before this thread. Some interesting reads out there. Learning something new today. Are ESG ratings really necessary? | Greenbiz
Now you post about an international global banking conspiracy. This is a very old trope. You have been slowly outing yourself. Your world isn’t real. No matter how much nonsense you read and link from it. Your world is, and has been, very dangerous. And DeSantis has no legal right to control how companies evaluate their own companies or how third party analysts do.
