• As opposed to how the US government can and does change the laws to allow the company to make more money?

    Yeah, obviously it sucks to support the Saudi royal family, but honestly, it’s not any worse than buying shares in Raytheon, Northrup Grumman, Shell or BP. All of them are terrible companies doing terrible things to our world.

      But the US government doesn’t do they. Not really. It’s highly illegal to do it for any reason that could be seen to be personal gain. You can’t count on any other country and company to bend the rules so that the company you invest in can benefit. Every other company on this list has to follow the law or face the consequences (those consequences may not be enough but that’s a different problem).
