For those who don't know, the pizza company's CEO hosted a Romney fundraiser last week, and has just today come out whining about how he's going to have to pass the cost of 'Obamacare' onto his customers.
Just look at the negative comments their facebook page is getting: https://www.facebook.com/#!/papajohns
I'd post a screen capture, but I'm computer illiterate, and don't know how. If someone out there could do us the honor and post one, we'd all be obliged.
If folks keep it up, I know one millionaire CEO who is going to be soon out of a job.

....You're worked hard for that time to relax, but you can't because you have cancer! And thanks to corporate dicks who refuse to provide health insurance, you have to spend all your hard-earned savings on healthcare! You're bankrupt now, and your children are inheriting a lifetime of debt! But that's okay, because we're running a two-for-one special this weekend.
... @Michael Klingon - you're an idiot. I hope your employer doesn't offer health insurance to you. And by the way, "socialized" medicine would not be built around thousands of private insurance companies. Get a clue.
...@Michael Klinge If there were a Papa John's here in northern NH (which there is not) I would gladly pay .25 more per pizza that I ordered if the Papa John's employees got health insurance and I didn't have to have my insurance rates increase because those same employees sans insurance have to go to the emergency room for their health care! Do you really think you are not paying for uninsured people now?

Emboldened by the right-wing response to homophobia, and sure this asshat thought he could get a free ride by bashing Obamacare.
