If you buy stocks in companies that you disagree with their way of doing business-you are selling out. I will never buy stock in an oil company. Record profits and they refuse to convert to renewable energy?! It would be easy to do so (as far as the resources they have at their disposal) and they would still make a profit-and be ahead of their competitor stuck in the stone ages and IMPROVING OUR PLANET'S POLLUTION LEVELS. However, they would rather "stay the course" (where have we heard that phrase before? Oh, I remember-their buddy Too Stupid to Chew a Pretzel)
