Financial Outlook Remains Doubtful
Fewer people have been driving Fords lately. You see, the Ford Motor Company and its subsidiaries aren’t selling vehicles as they would like. They have a problem, a thorn so to speak. The American Family Association’s boycott of their products has made for some serious financial woes. And for good reason. Ford has been advocating homosexuality despite its continually deteriorating bottom line. By pouring thousands of sponsorship dollars into homosexual rights groups, the corporation stands perilously close to sinking the very ship making these funds possible.
Billions of dollars and thousands of Ford employee jobs have been lost in the 22 months since AFA began the boycott. The price of political correctness. See the damage for yourself. Despite these losses and calls from its own dealers to change the policy, Ford headquarters plows blindly ahead toward the cliff. Just goes to show you how little control shareholders have. But, it also demonstrates a broader point – that credible and purposeful collaboration can work wonders, especially among a united voter bloc.
You get the idea.
