Summary

This quote suggests that large companies are unable to financially support political parties due to the divergence of political opinions among their shareholders and employees. As corporations consist of individuals with varying ideologies, it becomes difficult to align these diverse viewpoints when deciding which political party to fund. Consequently, supporting any particular party could risk alienating some stakeholders, potentially leading to divisions within the company. Thus, from a practical standpoint, it is challenging for large corporations to back political parties financially without potentially conflicting with the views of their shareholders and employees.

Life is only a brief stop on the road to eternity. Our loved

Life is only a brief stop on the road to eternity. Our loved ones, acquaintances, and strangers pass away before our very eyes on a daily basis. Yet each of us carries on with our lives as if we will live forever. This is merely an illusion; of course, as it is an inevitable consequence of life that each of us must die.
