Uh... are "progressives" opposed to private businesses having rights?


Depends what they're doing with those rights. See Citizens United vs FEC.


Exactly, progressives are ok with business right (which often translate to individual rights), just against businesses having all of the rights.


Broadly speaking no, but I don't recall them often being on that side of a given debate.


Colorado bakery. Yes, they're opposed to private businesses having rights, when it conflicts with something they consider more socially necessary.
