... GIVE A DAMN?
They were for it, before they were against it, and now they're for it again.
Fifth Third Bank switched back to discrimination after a U.S. Senator, see MARCO RUBIO, IT'S NOT ABOUT THEIR CHOICE. IT'S ABOUT MAKING ME PAY FOR IT, popped off against their position. No coincidence here: Fifth Third Bank is regulated by the Feds. Marco Rubio is a Fed.
This must be remembered about Fifth Third Bank or nothing wonderful can come of this tale, to paraphrase Dickens: They are bankers. They are in the business of using other people's money. When they take a credit on their taxes, for example, other people's taxes have to make up the difference. Other people pay.
So now they say they find nothing wrong with taking tax credits for donating to discrimination. See Leslie Postal, Fifth Third to Keep Funding / Bank reverses, will continue to back program benefiting schools with anti-LGBTQ policies, ORLANDO SENTINEL, Sat., Feb. 8, 2020 (unless you have a free article coming, the Orlando Sentinel may be online behind a paywall).
Let's stay focused here: It's not about their choice. It's about making you and me pay for it.
And giving Fifth Third Bank a tax credit.
