I& #39;ve seen a lot of folks doing apologetics for Chick-Fil-A.

Nothing against them. I understand the urge to cope.

Social issues aside, here& #39;s why the chain is in big trouble if they don& #39;t make a fast course correction ...
Question: Does McDonald& #39;s make the best cheeseburger?

No. McDonald& #39;s became the most successful enterprise of the 20th century thanks to marketing aimed at kids.

Kid sees McD& #39;s ad on Saturday. Begs dad to get him nuggies & plastic toy. Dad gets Big Mac while he& #39;s there.
McDonald& #39;s growth is largely tied up w/ the Baby Boom. Now that succeeding generations are having fewer kids, Mickey D& #39;s business is sagging.

Remodeling restaurants to look like brutalist shoeboxes won& #39;t help.
Chick-Fil-A beat this trend by appealing to the one group of Americans who are still having kids: Christians.
Trying to appeal to the Left is a dumb move from a moral & business perspective.

The Progressive cult has already declared Chick-Fil-A ritually unclean. There is no atonement.

Instead of capturing a new market, courting the Left will just alienate their customer base.
This isn& #39;t rocket science.

Appeal to the Christian families who& #39;ve made you #1 and you& #39;ll continue to thrive.

Throw those families under the bus, and you might get good boy points from the Left. But those aren& #39;t legal tender.
