Consider - Burger King tomorrow declares itself Christian - and says that they aren't going to pay for certain treatments. Most people on the left would be disgusted and wouldn't go to Burger King anymore. People on the right might lionize the company (certainly they love Chic-Fil-A) but they might also see it as the transparently cynical ploy that it is. So would they really pick up enough people to make up for the revenue loss?
If Burger King is already a bunch of bastards - I apologize - just picked a company at random.
