Published April 6, 2021 12:00am ET



Since Georgia enacted voting reform, numerous major companies have called for boycotting the Peach State. Encapsulating the woke drive for political purity, Major League Baseball is relocating its All-Star Game out of Atlanta.

Of course, it is the right of private businesses to do as they please with their money and investments, even if said choices are based on misinformation (as is the case with Georgia’s voting law). But based on their own standards, it would be hypocritical for companies to boycott Georgia and not next year’s Olympics in China and the World Cup in Qatar.
