Production will decline. Existing employees will be less loyal to the company and will seek
alternative employment which is not hard to do in low wage jobs. There are costs associated
with every employee you fire and then the cost of training new employees when that need
occurs, which it will because we ARE in a RECOVERY.

When people boycott a business they have a tendency to never return.

Kind of self-defeating, though.... jberryhill Nov 2012 #1
