Sounds like a cop out, but okay.
Income equality is an individual problem, not a societal problem. It's not politics, it's economics. Everyone makes exactly what they want to make. If you really wanted to make more you would.I don't mean to cop out, but the "societal problems" I would describe would be fodder for a quick dive into politics. Just an example before I check out of this thread: income inequality. I'm gone.
Only survey that counts is sales. They're going down. Remember, surveys also said Trump was going to lose. The proof is in the pudding. The pudding shows sales are down.

And you know this how? You don't and you're merely postulating.

Nothing P&G manufactures should be what one would call "political". This is merely a political statement rammed down the consumers' collective throat by an immature (and stupid) advertising dept. I would fire all associated with it within the hour. Then I would as CEO make a public apology and beg forgiveness. Politics does not belong in advertising.
That line in red is a link to the details of how I know that. I put it in there so that others could read it too, not for my personal amusement.
I agree 100% with what you say. While I believe politics does not belong in advertising it seems like we're getting more and more as it seems to be a case of there is no such thing as bad press. As long as the internet is typing your company name, it's a good thing. I think I've had enough. I gave them a pass the last time around. Certainly I can avoid Gillette and P&G in general. Schick seems to have started it's own thing around "masculinity" called the man I am.
Ok yes I can get on board with this. None of the politics and it’s just guys who are taking pride in being good at something and being well shaven. That’s simple and easy to get on board with
Good on you. You are blessed to have a friend that would ask you.I'm surprised this thread is still open.
I've got a good friend, Bob, whom I hired from his law school to work at my law firm about 30 years ago. We've been close ever since, and his two kids are about the same ages as my two kids. His older child, Mary, is now 30 years old. Over the last couple of decades, she's been the cutest female kid you can imagine (my kids are boys, so they don't compete).
Recently, Bob told me Mary has undergone a sex change procedure. His name is now Aaron. Bob, knowing I'm a shaving geek, asked me if I would be willing to teach Aaron how to shave. Of course, I jumped on it. Soon, I look forward to teaching Aaron about the joy of shaving.
Good on you. You are blessed to have a friend that would ask you.
As a shareholder I want them to make better products and gain market share. I don’t look for morality lectures from corporations.
On another note, when my aunt thought that space aliens were communicating with her through the radio telling her to drill holes in her head, we went to get psychiatric help for her. We didn’t take her to see a neurosurgeon to get the holes drilled.
I am blessed. More than anyone I know, actually.Thank you, Dave. I wasn't sure this was a safe place to align myself with the subject of the OP's post--you are blessed, as are we all.
