So it goes. Posts: 2,305 Group: Pin tan's Loveslaves Member #2,490 Joined: 18-Feb 2012	Being a resident of the US, I feel obligated to say that I agree with most of his diatribe. It doesn't seem at all infeasible that this nation will probably go the way of Rome and the British Empire, for reasons he outlined fairly well. I really don't care one way or the other as far as Chick Fil A itself is concerned. Priorities, man. Edited by Eugene Debs Hartke, 5 Aug 2012, 06:17 PM.
	Ask me shit: http://forum.thatfatatheist.com/topic/9751575/6/#new Buy me shit: http://amzn.com/w/1FW69YSRY4V3T “Because today we live in a society in which spurious realities are manufactured by the media, by governments, by big corporations, by religious groups, political groups... So I ask, in my writing, What is real? Because unceasingly we are bombarded with pseudo-realities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated electronic mechanisms. I do not distrust their motives; I distrust their power. They have a lot of it. And it is an astonishing power: that of creating whole universes, universes of the mind. I ought to know. I do the same thing.” - Philip K. Dick "Existence well what does it matter? I exist on the best terms I can.

If the best person in the world (so, Exploding Hero) owns a restaurant with great food, but the waiters are annoying or it takes too much time for the food to arrive, then fuck his restaurant.

I may be a little cynical, but it seems to have been a caculated gamble which has paid off. Why would a fast food joint get involved in social politics unless doing so is of benifit.

It must be noted that many of those companies are playing on an international market, so they can't afford to pander to the same extent as a purely Americian fast-food joint can.

As of April 2012, Chick-fil-A has 1,614 restaurants in 39 states, and the District of Columbia, and is focusing future growth in the American Midwest, Southern California, Mexico, and the Philippines.[4] The corporate culture is heavily influenced by its founder's Christian beliefs, and unlike the vast majority of fast food franchises, Chick-fil-A is closed for business on Sunday. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chick-fil-A Damn...
