Nestle is going to continue to offer money to buy good will because decision makers believe they "must have" Nestlé's help because - - - - - (fill in the blanks).  This is no different than the health care system who believe(d) that in order to survive they "must have" free supplies, huge sums of industry money, free education, etc. and conference organizers thought they "must have" industry help to put on a conference or "must have" industry ads to pay for their journals etc. etc. etc..

 I believe it is up to decision makers to learn why they need to say, "No thank you, Nestle".  I hope someone starts a boycott of Girl Scout cookies. The more we talk about who and what Nestle is and the more negative publicity about them, the better.

 Surprisingly, many people still think Nestle has cleaned up their act and are good corporate citizens - which is far from the truth.
