Tallahassee is going to be pissed off........

Lol! That's the first thing I said when I heard the news today. Maybe the zombie apocalypse is upon us

Union mentality strikes again!

Yup, I have been saying it for years now. The labor laws that are in place now, their is just no reason for the unions in the work place in this day and age.

I can't say I'm sad to see the fatty pills go bye bye , Our country is so obese it's disgusting the sad thing is these disgustingly obese people are having children and feeding them the same crappy way! Ok I'm done with my soap box!!

I truly do feel for the many that have and will lose their jobs. I remember a certain president saying we are growing jobs, funny I don't see it I see them going away. In this day and age I'm so thankful I'm in the military. It might not be the best pay or best job but I'm guaranteed a paycheck and healthcare!

yeap, miss that part of it, have about seven months before my 42nd Bday to try and get back in, though it will be the reserves, but sometimes can lead back to active service depending on MOS requirements, another ADSW position would be awesome right now.

I love non union building trades shops.They keep me employed fixing all the mess they made.Ive worked for a union shop for 8 years and this has been the best year for me since 2008.The owner of my shop lives like one of his employees.I know non union guys in the same trade.they make way less with no benefits and the owners of thier shops are living large.

Here is your non union twinkie.

This has nothing to do with him or his decisions. Im neutral party so you can trust me on that.
Theirs sales constantly going down over the years has nothing to do with the president .... but way to point fingers.

People are becoming more health conscious and Hostess refused to make anything new for the market.

To say the current cabinet has nothing to do with businesses failing is simply incorrect. I don't mean this to come across the wrong way and I'm not directing this at you onlogue, but it absolutely can have a direct impact on business. Now probably not in the case of Hostess, but one of several industry examples of how those currently in office are causing businesses to fail is in the medical industry. The Affordable Care Act will impose a 2.5% tax on medical device companies. This is a revenue tax, not a profits tax. The impact of this is massive especially businesses operating at $0.10 on the $1.00. As a result, just to name a few of the reprecussions, many device companies are and will begin laying off 1000's of employees AND forcing R&D budgets to be drastically cut.

Stryker, Fortune 100 company: maker of medical devices like hip/knee replacements, trauma implants, hospital stretchers, etc laid off 1000 people in 2012 in preparation for the tax.
Welch Allyn: maker of diagnostic instruments used daily in physicians offices, surgery centers, and hospitals, for the first time in 100 years in operation laid off 270 people because in preparation for this tax.

Reducing R&D directly results in fewer advancements in the medical field or any field for that matter. Laying off 1000's of employees obviously puts a strain on the economy.

Most people who voted for the current administration have no idea of the negative impact government will have on small and large businesses alike. Penalizing companies who can't afford to provide Health Insurance to employees. Madness.

It's real and it is happening.
