4. A Papa Johns restaurant IS a Papa Johns restaurant

etc.. etc.. etc...

Sorry, but a point needs to be made. Unless Americans are serious about backing American workers from the middle class all the way down to the folks earning less than middle-class wages, we will lose the battle.

If the folks at Papa Johns want to take a stand against the American worker, We Americans need to take a stand against Papa Johns.

I don't know how we would do that except to stop funding their company. By funding I mean purchasing their product.

Don't call Papa Johns when you want a Pizza. It won't take long for the corporate goons to get the drift. They'll reverse their position soon enough and the franchisees will again be in business.
