[QUOTE="HDRider, post: 1177927, member: 17025"] Boycott Discover Card for its Support of HSUS We’ve launched a new site: [url=http://www.BoycottHSUS.com]www.BoycottHSUS.com[/url] And we have our first campaign. The credit card company Discover recently started a new affinity card to benefit the deceptively named Humane Society of the United States. For every $100 someone with one of these cards spends, Discover will donate between 1 and 20 cents to HSUS. That may not seem like much, but Discover expects it will add up to slightly over $1 million. In fact, according to the contract, Discover paid HSUS $150,000 up front in advance royalty payments. And HSUS gets $100 from Discover for every person that signs up for the program from an HSUS communication and spends $100 within the first three months. But where will that money go? Discover may not like the answer, and the company’s decision-makers should know the following: The Oklahoma Attorney General has opened an investigation of HSUS, issuing subpoenas in July. In May, HSUS paid up to $15.75 million to settle a federal RICO lawsuit alleging bribery and fraud. Charity Navigator revoked its rating of HSUS in June, replacing it with a “Donor Advisory.” HSUS gets a “C-minus” grade from the well-respected CharityWatch. HSUS has a radical agenda to put farmers out of business. [b]HSUS only gives 1% of the money it raises to local pet shelters, despite its name and its ads full of dogs and cats.[/b]Please visit BoycottHSUS.com and pledge to boycott Discover until it cancels its support for one of America’s most deceptive charities.
