This is one reason so many people's heads are not screwed on right. The Empire State Building will honor the anniversary of the People's Republic of China but refuses to honor the centennial of the birth of Mother Teresa. Shows where the owner's sentiments lie.

It occurs to me that the building is owned by a business.
One entity makes them money, the other does not.
Unless they are egalitarian and/or non-profit, the decision is simple.
