If nothing else, corporations are "neutral" in the sense that the purpose of a corporation is to maximize profits, and they can be relied upon to act with great consistency in the pursuit of this objective. Minor perceived variations in this are mostly (as far as I can tell) the result of management shifting emphasis from short-term to longer-term objectives... and back again. As in "if we act really nice and generous THIS year, we can triple our profits NEXT year."
Those South Park guys are really insightful... and a strange latter-day proof that it was always the "court jesters" who had the freedom to call the rulers they "entertained" on their bullshit.
In these strange times, abstaining may be the closest thing we have to a "Vote of no confidence," not so much in an individual running for office, but in the system. Of course, the downside is that abstaining typically leaves a silent majority being ruled over by an increasingly rabid and extremist majority...
