   Sadly, a quick perusal of the comments demonstrates that most readers totally missed the point. Try to be more than your party affiliation and talking points.

   I live in Atlanta. The only addition I’d make is “turn left at the Waffle House.”

   It is a bit ironic that a group like Chic-Fil-A that treats their employees well gets the wrath of the PC police, yet Hooters can exploit women to attract customers and that is fine. We are getting quite twisted.

   Agree – everyone has a right to boycott just as they have a right to have an opinion. My daughter works there and loves the way they treat their employees. I’ll continue enjoying it. Big jump from not thinking same-sex marriage is OK to being “a bigot”. Name calling does not help create dialogue and understanding. Boycott away, but don’t become speech police – the latter takes us where hopefully no one wants to go!

   If you’re not happy with them, then eat at Burger King, but quit whining. Is it really not OK for a business owner to have an opinion? Chic-Fil-A does more for their employees than any other fast-food restaurant or even business for that matter that I’ve heard of. Yet they will be hammered because a few people don’t like their views on this single issue, even though other enterprises can walk over their employees and get a pass. Gaaah. Increasingly disillusioned with this nation.

   I get a kick how on such forums each side accuses the other of being bought out. Get real, folks, they ALL are bought out! Until we realize that and quit letting our votes be bought by slick and negative ads, it won’t change. Funny how often big corps give huge gifts to BOTH candidates, so whichever one wins, they’ve still bought the influence! Anyone unwilling to accept huge donations can’t even get on the radar of the electorate. It is not a democracy!

   Hmmm – nearly 50% of Americans don’t pay any income tax. Not sure why he thinks the “have nots” are paying taxes. Emotion, not common sense, is ruling the debate on all sides.

   No doubt Rat represents the dark side of many of us who think about the same thing! And the rest of the population is oblivious to our dark thoughts. (They probably live longer as well!)

   Its not Reps or Dems – it’s US politics and it stinks. Maybe you’ve all forgotten when it was contested Dem primaries – same nonsense.

    Ponzi = money invested now used to pay people who invested before. Money people invested before already spent. Implication, eventually there will be no more money to pay out to the last bunch of investors. Sure sounds like Social Security to me!
