10. Not necessarily. For instance; NeoCon politics are NOT fiscally
conservative by any means and tend to be detrimental to smaller corporations, even multinational ones.

First of all, as many have mentioned upthread, we need to make a distinction between for-profit and non-profit.

My husband works for a multinational, albeit a rather small one.

Said corporation stays out of politics, but the business structure is fiscally conservative, yet progressive (new markets=willingness to take risks) and socially fairly libertarian/tolerant; as I see it, that equals liberal.

We know many of the upper-level management and they seem to be again--fiscally conservative, but socially liberal. The ones I've spoken politics with tended to vote to the moderate Left.

FWIW, he used to work at Bechtel, again, fiscally conservative, but actually fairly socially liberal in the corporate structure at least.
