That's a big concern, and I'm not surprised that it does business in Russia.

Jon Huntsman has been around for awhile, and he hasn't caused me too much alarm. I know, he has an R after his name, but he might be one of those old school Republicans, the kind who put country ahead of party.

Wait and see on this guy.

Delivering Innovation with Purpose
Innovation is critical to the growth and sustainability of our business. As emerging technologies continue to redefine our customers’
needs, we must remain agile through innovation to meet ever-changing demands in an extremely competitive marketplace.
At Huntsman, innovation is threaded into the fabric of how we operate – and has been from the very beginning. Our company has a
proven record of scientific and technological innovation. We have nearly 5,000 patents (granted and pending), an expanding inventory of products
and an increasing presence in worldwide markets..


I never can understand what these corporate statements even mean. Even the ads on the local NPR station are a mystery to me.
