Papa John's CEO John Schnatter Says Company Will Reduce Workers' Hours In Response To

No, believing that it is a right for Arby's to pay for your health care is fantasy land.

 

not necessarily true, happiness often comes at the expense of productivity

 

No, that's called the law. If you want to ruin the environment, provide no benefits, and be free from regulations then try Afghanistan.

 

LOL at the liberal responses on here. What did you think would happen with such a crappy law as Obamacare. To think some on here think companies are laying off just because of the election results. I don't know if it is lack of common sense or just naivety, but liberals just don't seem to understand some very easy and common sense business principals.

Wait, I know the solution, maybe the government should just take over these businesses and throw their owners and/or CEO's in prison. How dare them want to make a profit. Greedy bastards.

 

To a certain extent. I've seen what morale does when the GM is someone the crew likes vs one they don't. It's a much less pleasant place to work even if for the big-wigs the numbers improve. You get more leeway with the crap a regular Joe will put up with as well when he is happier....

But being happy with insurance vs not happy with losing the stalwarts of a team that make things go so much smoother is another thing to weigh for CEOs...

 

This "make my day" approach by the left to layoffs really helps all those unemployed they profess to care about.

But hey, at least we're stickin it to em now, greedy bastards, that's all that matters. Corporations have got to get got.

 

It's going to be law soon. Not yet. And it is a NEW law so to act like businesses have been breaking some law for decades now is an odd stance to take.

 

Yes, the government taking over everything is the only solution to everything.

Chuck E. Cheese owes me all of my health care. It's my right.

 

Thats the great thing about democracy. You have a right to cut off your nose to spite your face. This is just some pouting. I sure they'll get in line with the market eventually and start hiring/paying or someine else will.

 

Papa John's profits have been rising... must be tough on them to provide a reasonable level of health benefits to their employees.

 

It's going to be great when we get past all this ridiculous bull**** and just get a single-payer healthcare system.

 

What a strange concept: if you are going to utilize and profit off a worker base that the taxpayer educated and has a continuing duty to protect, you have to take care of said workers.

 

this.

 

Why should companies be obligated to take care of their employees? Why cant the employees take care of themselves? Last I checked, this country was still operating on a Free Enterprise system in which you have the ability to make much as money as you want for yourself and family, or make as little as you want. That's YOUR decision and nobody else's.

This is the problem with America today - everyone wants a stinkin handout as if you're entitled..you're not entitled to anything! You wanna take from the successful people who have put their blood, sweat, and tears into making their companies what it is today. What makes you think that it's THEIR responsibility to provide for you? Dont blame others (successful business owners/companies) for doing the things that you're unwilling to do.

"95% of America blame others, 5% of America takes responsibility." - Jeff Olson, The Slight Edge

Which side of the spectrum do you think you're falling under?

 

do you have any knowledge of the history of labor?

 

How much (in dollars) are you worth?

 

That is why Obamacare was created in the first place. It wouldn't surprise me if Obamacare doesn't screw up healthcare so bad that we end up with a single payer system by 2016. I am curious if tort reform will be addressed in the single payer system we will have in the next few years. The Canadian single payer system does not allow much punitive damages in lawsuits. This keeps malpractice insurance lower and thus helps control cost. Obamcare did absolutely nothing to stop this. Will them Democrats include tort reform at the expense of their trial lawyer buddies???

 

That would be great!

 

Sure, I would be happy to have reasonable limits on lawsuit damages in exchange for a single-payer health care system.

 

Do you have any knowledge of how employer-based health care came to be? It should be fought, not embraced.
