40. We Also Need Dem CEO types to counter act

If any company lays off sixteen we need to find one that will hire seventeen and "we" could spread the word about their noble deed. They could all use a bit of pr and we know we need more jobs to continue our forward progression.
How many of these anti Obama types were just waiting for his victory to use as an excuse to lay off people,cut their hours or not hire new help? We need to beat them at their own game. Boycotting is indeed a start but we need to stay ahead of them and not let them get away with such a heartless act. After all they seem to think it's OK for THEM to have healthcare but not for their help. It's OK for them to have great benefits,paid vacations etc. It's time the worker gets respect,a living wage and benefits. They are not asking for a handout.
