DeSantis, "Florida is where ESG goes to die"

DeSantis signed a landmark bill designed to protect Floridians from the corporatist environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) movement.

Specifically, the new law,

stops financial institutions from discriminating against customers for their religious, political, or social beliefs--like owning a firearm, securing the border, our increasing our energy independence.

bans the financial sector from considering so called 'Social Credit Scores' in banking and lending practices aimed to prevent Floridians from obtaining financial services like loans, lines of credit, and bank accounts.

blocks the use of ESG in all investment decisions at the state and local level, ensuring that only financial factors are considered to maximize the return on investment, protecting retirees and taxpayers alike.

prohibits state and local governments, from using ESG as part of the procurement and contracting process.

eliminates consideration of ESG factors by state and local governments when issuing bonds.

In general, ESG seeks to replace shareholder capitalism with what is known as "stakeholder" capitalism.



Under "shareholder" capitalism, a company's #1 priority is to produce high-quality goods and services that customers want at the most affordable price. This is called profit motive, and its the essence of capitalism.

Under "stakeholder" capitalism, companies oblige the interests of all "stakeholders," such as investors, owners, employees, vendors, customers, and the general public at large. According to the tenets of stakeholder capitalism, profit is not a company's primary concern, social justice advocacy is paramount.

ps: The reason why thousands of people are fleeing crime ridden liberal hellspots like N.Y.C. et al to move to Florida isn't just because of the crime per say, but because many businesses have been forced to close because of the crime and the looting that has devastated their business and their livelihoods, but also because they find that their capitalist endeavors are being snuffed out by this ESG stakeholder capitalism.

A great book explaining the devastating affect of stakeholder capitalism verse the profit making shareholder capitalism can be seen by reading the highly intelligent book by Vivek Ramaswamy called "Woke INC."

Snowbirds manipulating Florida for its lax income tax, they all return in the Spring, most even earlier and longer once they have the residency requirement fulfilled
 
From Yak's link:

"New York continues to lead the country in population loss and outmigration, according to data released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau.

The Empire State saw the largest annual numeric and percent decline in its population between July 2021 and July 2022, dropping by 180,341 people. Overall, that's a 0.9% decrease in people living in New York, the bureau reported.

Net domestic migration accounted for much of the decline in the state's population, with New York losing 299,557 to other states.

New York in the last two years has seen a sharp drop in its population, losing more than 400,000 people during that time."


Thugs are set free and those who try to stop them are prosecuted.

No wonder that they are abandoning N.Y.
 
I'm sure that's a part of it...even though some here claim it's nothing...just the "norm"...400,000 people is two years is not chopped liver, though...;)

Right. People want out of that shit hole. Any normal person would.

Yeah, 200,000 a year out of 20,000,000 puts a big dent in the State, as the Sinatra song goes, there the one’s who couldn’t make it there
 
PS: Florida’s crime rate is worse than New York’s

Orlando is not Florida any more than Buffalo or NYC is the State of New York. Your statistics are not holding up once you read the data. Since Bragg refuses to prosecute certain crimes those crimes are no longer reported to the FBI by his office, this doesn't mean that they have dropped, it just means that there is no consequence and the crimes are not reported to the FBI and therefore not included in these stats.

Lol, Orlando isn’t the only city with a high crime rate.

I’d like to see evidence of your claim about Bragg. You’re actually stating he’s not prosecuting violent crime? Or property crimes. Yeah, I gotta see evidence.

However, it was the city your article compared to New York.
