We need to back the Papa Johns employees [View all]

Papa John has announced that because of the election he will be laying off employees because of the Affordable Care Act. Go to his facebook page and let him know what you think. His page is overwhelmed with negative comments. He could charge an extra .14 cents per pizza and be able for afford to provide all of his employees with good health care insurance, but instead he is threatening a layoff. I for one will be boycotting Papa Johns. Let's back up other American Workers and tell him what you think. Ready, set, go!!!!!
