00:00:06.959 --> 00:00:09.279
Hey, welcome back to the Laris Larson Show.
00:00:09.359 --> 00:00:12.800
It's Conspiracy Theory Thursday, and I think I've got a good one for you.
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:18.239
You probably already know, or at least you sense, that I don't like the abortion pill.
00:00:18.399 --> 00:00:19.679
Uh in fact, I hate it.
00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:21.600
It is a way of killing babies.
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:25.920
It is making abortion convenient, and I don't think that's a good thing.
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:35.359
But now Christian investors are taking their pro-life fight, which I agree with, to Federal Express, and they're pressuring the company over shipping abortion drugs.
00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:39.520
Can your investment portfolio actually help change a corporate policy?
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:48.399
I thought I'd put that first to Robert Netzley, who is the president and CEO of Inspire Investing and author of Biblically Responsible Investing.
00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:50.159
Robert, welcome back to the program.
00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:50.960
How are you?
00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:52.159
My pleasure.
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:53.039
Thanks, Lord.
00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:53.679
I'm doing great.
00:00:54.000 --> 00:01:00.880
I mean, I just want to give the full disclosure that I don't I don't have any financial involvement uh in the uh abortion drugs.
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:18.239
Uh I don't like the fact that it exists, and I don't like the fact that abortion has become so convenient in America to the point where, you know, a young woman may end up with these pills uh not be by her choice, but by her boyfriend's choice in some cases.
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:26.719
And even if it is her choice, she may have those pills without ever having consulted with a doctor in person, which I think is hugely problematic.
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:34.239
So, what are investors doing to try to bring some pressure on those companies that are delivering these abortion pills?
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:41.359
Well, our company, Inspire uh Investing and our wealth management inspire advisors, we we fight hard on this issue.
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:58.879
We actually have uh we're supporting resolutions uh that we filed with UPS and also this upcoming one next week, FedEx, uh, to get them to stop shipping the abortion drug Miphopristone, which is the primary abortion drug uh that the Biden regime kind of opened the floodgates on as they were leaving the office.
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:04.319
And uh it look, the Comstock Act uh prohibits, the federal regulation prohibits the shipping of these things.
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:08.240
Uh, and the new AG, Todd Blanche, says he is going to enforce this.
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:12.800
So, as investors, uh, number one, we would like, you know, not to kill babies.
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:13.439
Thank you very much.
00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:18.639
Number two, uh, we shouldn't be doing illegal things with our businesses.
00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:26.080
So if this is against the law, why is FedEx and UPS still shipping these things as if it's uh totally harmless and without liability?
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:27.439
So we're pushing on that.
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:31.360
We want them to uh give us transparency and consider that really seriously.
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:46.479
And and you're literally bringing this up, what, four days from now at the company's annual meeting of Federal Expresses where all the stockholders of their proxies can show up on September 28th and and give the uh I guess the board of directors a piece of their mind?
00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:47.280
Right.
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:54.159
Yeah, so the the the proposition number six is the one that we're voting to support, uh encouraging the people to take a look at that.
00:02:54.240 --> 00:03:06.719
Uh it would support the uh FedEx to do a liability assessment and tell us as shareholders of their plan to uh hopefully stop shipping these things because it's again, it it is illegal.
00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:09.520
This law is on the books and it's been on the books for a long time.
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:12.479
Um what here's the here's the nasty truth, though.
00:03:12.639 --> 00:03:27.280
The people that all you listening, conservatives, Christians, uh your money right now, if it's in the kind of normal mutual fund or in any of the big like Wall Street banks or advisory houses, your your money is voting against that.
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:36.240
Like no surprise, Black Rock, American Funds, Fidelity, these people, these places are not uh going to vote to stop shipping Mr.
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:36.960
Pristone.
00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:44.479
Uh and your money is being hijacked to advance this agenda uh unless you're unless you're you know taking steps uh to uh to do that.
00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:57.199
So that's one of the things I talk about in my book, Biblically Responsible Investing on Wall Street as it is in heaven, how you can you know get your power back and stop being uh again hijacked and uh and leveraged to advance progressive left agendas.
00:03:57.520 --> 00:04:01.280
I'm talking to Robert Netzley, who is president-CEO of Inspire Investing.
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:10.159
Uh, you would think that the risk management departments of these big companies, you know, the ones that watch for what the company is doing and say we we need to change our procedures.
00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:19.680
I mean, for companies like, say, UPS, they might say we need to have a different policy on tires or drivers or a hundred other things that expose the company to liability.
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:22.639
And as you point out, the Comstock Act is right there.
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:28.560
It says if you're bringing these drugs into states where it's illegal, like Idaho, then you're gonna have a major problem.
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:38.480
And then, God forbid, since we know that both of those drugs, uh MIFA Presto and Mysta Prostol, um, that they sometimes send women to the emergency room.
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:41.040
They sometimes send women to the morgue.
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:51.279
That with that in with that in mind, if your company illegally brings a drug into the state and it ends up killing a woman, they're going to sue that company too.
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:53.680
And I know people are going to have a tough time believing that.
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:54.639
Well, no, no, no.
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:56.800
You'll sell the f you'll sue the pharma company.
00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:58.639
Well, they'll sue everybody.
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.399
I r I remember when they had the uh oh gosh, what was it?
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:09.759
The the it was a uh a disease prompt, toxic shock syndrome uh that had to do with uh women's uh female hygiene products.
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:25.199
And when I were at those lawsuits when I was covering all that back then, they sued everybody from Tampax to the uh to the drugstore to the the the little lady or the little man standing there at the cash register who is who is selling the product to the customer.
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:27.279
And you say, why are they in the suit?
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:31.199
Because in suits, everybody gets sued who's connected to it.
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:40.879
And in this case, if you've actually violated federal law by bringing the drug into the state, you'd think that would especially expose you to liability, wouldn't it?
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:42.319
I would think so.
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:44.000
And that's what lawyers do best, right?
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:49.680
And and there's one in particular, the attorney general of the United States of America, who has already fired that shot across the ball.
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:52.399
Um, so it it needs to be seriously considered.
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:58.720
One of the responses FedEx and uh perhaps UPS will give the same response is that, well, they can't know what's in the packages.
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:00.399
Well, I'm on their website right now.
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:07.759
They already prohibit shipping for marijuana tobacco, firearms, medical waste, uh relics, counterfeit goods.
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:12.160
I mean, they're already, they have they can know what's in the packages, in other words.
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:13.600
Uh there's no excuse.
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:19.040
I think it is a massive liability for shareholders uh as well as morally uh problematic.
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.959
No, I agree with all that, but Robert, you'd think it'd be fairly easy.
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:25.040
How many companies make these drugs?
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:26.800
Half a dozen, maybe?
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:30.079
Yeah, not very many, and they're mostly overseas, and we have the list.
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:35.040
We know who and if they're pharma companies, you say, but they're pharma companies who make some other drugs as well.
00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:35.439
Great.
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:35.680
Sure.
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:38.079
Tell put your customers on notice.
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:43.439
You are not allowed to send these drugs through Federal Express to these states.
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.800
And if we catch you doing it, we're no longer shipping your goods.
00:06:47.040 --> 00:07:02.480
Now I know that's painful for a company that does shipment to you know to make its living, but if you say this is not allowed under federal law, and if you do it, if you ship I mean, what is what does FedEx do to me if I illegally shipped a firearm uh through Federic FedEx?
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.439
I would imagine they they would take action against me.
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:10.720
So if people want to act on this, Robert, what's the best way for them to get in touch with you and your group?
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:13.040
Certainly buy my book and get educated.
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:16.160
Uh biblically responsible investing on Wall Street as in heaven.
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:18.240
Also go to inspiredvisors.com.
00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:22.079
Our team provides free analysis of your portfolio to learn one, if do you own these stocks?
00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:27.839
Are you making money from abortion drug producers and manufacturers and give you steps practically how to how to change that?
00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:29.360
And then again, take the power back.
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.800
Let's let's speak biblical truth to these corporate giants.
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:38.399
And uh I I really think we can end the shipping of abortion drugs and many other problems uh as we do that.
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:40.240
We've already I think you can do that as well.
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:41.439
Robert, thank you very much.
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:42.959
We very much appreciate the time.
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:47.040
By the way, your automobile can be a spy against you.
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:49.120
And here's a true story that proves it.
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:52.800
A guy's car insurance had jumped by more than twenty percent.
00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:54.560
No accidents, no tickets.
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:58.000
So he wanted to dig down and find out who had turned him in.
00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:00.000
Turned out it was his own car.
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:06.639
Every time he hard braked, every fast merge, every late-night taco run, his automaker logged it all.
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:09.759
Then they took the data and they sold it to a data broker.
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:13.279
And that broker sold it right back to his insurance company.
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:14.720
He requested his file.
00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:15.920
Hundreds of pages.
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:23.360
General Motors just had to pay$12.75 million to the state of California over the very same issue.
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:29.040
The lesson: data brokers aren't just selling your address anymore, they're selling your habits to anybody.
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:32.960
And that's why I've been using Incogni since January of this year.
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:38.799
It's the online service that forces the data brokers and the people search sites to delete your information.
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:42.159
They've already scrubbed me off nine hundred sites so far.
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:46.480

You'll sell the f you'll sue the pharma company.
00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:58.639
Well, they'll sue everybody.
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:02.399
I r I remember when they had the uh oh gosh, what was it?
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:09.759
The the it was a uh a disease prompt, toxic shock syndrome uh that had to do with uh women's uh female hygiene products.
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:25.199
And when I were at those lawsuits when I was covering all that back then, they sued everybody from Tampax to the uh to the drugstore to the the the little lady or the little man standing there at the cash register who is who is selling the product to the customer.
00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:27.279
And you say, why are they in the suit?
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:31.199
Because in suits, everybody gets sued who's connected to it.
00:05:31.279 --> 00:05:40.879
And in this case, if you've actually violated federal law by bringing the drug into the state, you'd think that would especially expose you to liability, wouldn't it?
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:42.319
I would think so.
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:44.000
And that's what lawyers do best, right?
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:49.680
And and there's one in particular, the attorney general of the United States of America, who has already fired that shot across the ball.
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:52.399
Um, so it it needs to be seriously considered.
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:58.720
One of the responses FedEx and uh perhaps UPS will give the same response is that, well, they can't know what's in the packages.
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:00.399
Well, I'm on their website right now.
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:07.759
They already prohibit shipping for marijuana tobacco, firearms, medical waste, uh relics, counterfeit goods.
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:12.160
I mean, they're already, they have they can know what's in the packages, in other words.
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:13.600
Uh there's no excuse.
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:19.040
I think it is a massive liability for shareholders uh as well as morally uh problematic.
00:06:19.439 --> 00:06:22.959
No, I agree with all that, but Robert, you'd think it'd be fairly easy.
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:25.040
How many companies make these drugs?
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:26.800
Half a dozen, maybe?
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:30.079
Yeah, not very many, and they're mostly overseas, and we have the list.
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:35.040
We know who and if they're pharma companies, you say, but they're pharma companies who make some other drugs as well.
00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:35.439
Great.
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:35.680
Sure.
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:38.079
Tell put your customers on notice.
00:06:38.319 --> 00:06:43.439
You are not allowed to send these drugs through Federal Express to these states.
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.800
And if we catch you doing it, we're no longer shipping your goods.
00:06:47.040 --> 00:07:02.480
Now I know that's painful for a company that does shipment to you know to make its living, but if you say this is not allowed under federal law, and if you do it, if you ship I mean, what is what does FedEx do to me if I illegally shipped a firearm uh through Federic FedEx?
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.439
I would imagine they they would take action against me.
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:10.720
So if people want to act on this, Robert, what's the best way for them to get in touch with you and your group?
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:13.040
Certainly buy my book and get educated.
00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:16.160
Uh biblically responsible investing on Wall Street as in heaven.

00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:27.839

00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:29.360

00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:32.800
Let's let's speak biblical truth to these corporate giants.
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:38.399
And uh I I really think we can end the shipping of abortion drugs and many other problems uh as we do that.
00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:40.240
We've already I think you can do that as well.
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:41.439
Robert, thank you very much.
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:42.959
We very much appreciate the time.
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:47.040
By the way, your automobile can be a spy against you.
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:49.120
And here's a true story that proves it.
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:52.800
A guy's car insurance had jumped by more than twenty percent.
00:07:52.959 --> 00:07:54.560
No accidents, no tickets.
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:58.000
So he wanted to dig down and find out who had turned him in.
00:07:58.240 --> 00:08:00.000
Turned out it was his own car.
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:06.639
Every time he hard braked, every fast merge, every late-night taco run, his automaker logged it all.
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:09.759
Then they took the data and they sold it to a data broker.
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:13.279
And that broker sold it right back to his insurance company.
00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:14.720
He requested his file.
00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:15.920
Hundreds of pages.
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:23.360
General Motors just had to pay$12.75 million to the state of California over the very same issue.
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:29.040
The lesson: data brokers aren't just selling your address anymore, they're selling your habits to anybody.
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:32.960
And that's why I've been using Incogni since January of this year.
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:38.799
It's the online service that forces the data brokers and the people search sites to delete your information.
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:42.159
They've already scrubbed me off nine hundred sites so far.
