Corporate America has reinvented the wheel when it comes to destroying the fabric of life in the United States of America. These Tyrants never blinked when it came to outsourcing jobs in the U.S. to countries where they could pay slave labor wages, and avoid safety regulations regardless of the human toll it took on American Communities. After destroying American Citizens Economically it seems as if this wasn't enough, and it's now fashionable for Corporate America to go after our freedoms, and wage a war on the U.S. Constitution.

Most notable is Big Tech companies openly censoring American's Freedom of Speech. Tearing apart the 1st Amendment in ways they have no business at all interfering, or even can claim a noble purpose, like the most in recent Sicial Media Censorship Purges on Conservatives,the Alt Right, and Activists that disagree with the Deep State Left.

A lesser known Corporate Attack on the U.S. Constitution is beign cconducted by Levi Strauss, an American apparel company, and their target is the second Amendment.

In an interview with Fortune, Levi Strauss & Co. president and CEO Chip Bergh made the following statement

"As president and CEO of a values-driven company that’s known the world over as a pioneer of the American West and one of the great symbols of American freedom, I take the responsibility of speaking up on the important issues of our day very seriously. We can’t take on every issue. But as business leaders with power in the public and political arenas, we simply cannot stand by silently when it comes to the issues that threaten the very fabric of the communities where we live and work. While taking a stand can be unpopular with some, doing nothing is no longer an option.

That’s why Levi Strauss & Co. is stepping up our support for gun violence prevention. You may wonder why a company that doesn’t manufacture or sell guns is wading into this issue, but for us, it’s simple. Americans shouldn’t have to live in fear of gun violence. It’s an issue that affects all of us—all generations and all walks of life"

Apparently CEO Chip Bergh can't wait until he gets off work to share his personal views after hours as a U S. Citizen. Using the power of a Corporation to infringe on Constitutional Rights is Activism for Tyrants.

CEO Chip Bergh isn't done yet using Corporate Power to act as our Un-elected Government, and make policy in the private arena, he is going to start," Everytown Business Leaders for Gun Safety", and encourage more CEO's to join him in the Corporate move to police American's and be our moral compass.

So employee's don't feel left out on Corporate America acting as our Pseudo Government , and miss out on Corporate Resources to infringe on Constitutional Right's he made the following claim,"In addition, we’re encouraging employees who are concerned about gun violence to get involved. Levi Strauss & Co. provides employees five hours a month (60 hours a year) in paid volunteer time and we recently expanded this to include political activism. We’re encouraging our employees to use their time to make an impact."

American Corporations should stick with their intended purpose, and stay out of an Arena that doesn't concern them for a very good reason. We are Citizens first, and foremost. There should be a clear separation of Corporation, and State. Having out of touch CEO's who have done little to none to help build a better America attacking Constitutional Rights as a Corporation, and not as an individual is completely out of line.

Corporations have gone to far this time. It is bad enough they run Washington DC with lobbyists, and special interest groups, but now they are openly using the Power of Corporations to infringe on our Constitutional Rights as American Citizens.
