      Do elaborate on how the government legally mandating association and business deals doesn’t violate people’s freedom to do those things (or not) of their own will

        I guess I’ll have to explain it to you like 5 yo then. When you go into business, You’re there to make money. But the only argument you’re here to make is really a discriminatory one. You don’t actually have an argument. There is no argument to deny anyone our service that you provide and that’s free association. The bullshit that you’re trying to pander is just that, just bullshit and anybody who has two brain cells to rub together can see right through it

          And you should be free to accomplish (or not) that goal however you please. Should every mom and pop restaurant be striving to be the next big keiretsu because big business is where the cash lives? And while there’s an argument that publicly traded companies actually do have that obligation to cash above all else as a duty to shareholders, privately owned businesses don’t. The business is whatever the owners want it to be. They’re under no obligation to optimize their profits. If they want to make decisions based on their own personal views at the expense of profit, that’s damn well their right.

          But hey, I know you aren’t going to bother responding to anything I say since you’re just here to sling insults since you lack the spine to outright say you don’t support personal freedom.

        A shop puts up a “We don’t serve blacks” sign.

        The government forces them to take it down and serve black people.

        Was the shop’s freedom trampled?
