An online campaign has many boycotting Papa John’s pizza chain after CEO John Schnatter was very vocal about his disapproval for President Obama and his heath care plan. Schnatter who was one of Forbes’ richest people under 40 in 2011 and is worth about $300 million says that in order to avoid raising the cost of pizza pies about 10-14 cents to cover employee’s healthcare costs franchisees should consider reducing employees to under 30 hours a week.

hey faggot john.
just raise the cost of pizza pies 15 cents across the board and stop your bloodclot complaining.
ironic that you’re contributing to obesity among the poor and you don’t even want them to live long enough to continue buying your shit.
IDIOT.
wtf u mean dont wanna raise the price 10 cents. thats a fucking jooooke. lmao. nobody likes papajohns anyways just their garlic sauce. TRUTH
RIGHT!!! That garlic sauce is the bomb! Thats the only reason I buy Pap Johns…..
GARLIC SAUCE THATS IT, NOW NO MORE PAPA JOHN..
All this because a black man is running the country..smdh…John is pathetic! I will not support his business.
.10 Cents per pizza to give your employees health coverage? When that money could be used to buy some donuts and coffee for the employees instead, because that is more important.
what?
Canadian never make any sense. Do y’all even got Faggot John’s up there?
I was using a thing called sarcasm.. and no we do not have this franchise up here, but we do have free universal health care for all, supplied by the government.
Dick.
And your pizza is WACK! anyway… even for a cheap chain.
i concur!
I will be boycotting papa johns now, soon as I try this garlic sauce everybody is raving about
LOL….. Its the bomb!
some of y’all truly bring me joy
I would pay a dollar more per pizza, if it meant those families would get healthcare. This guy is so damn greedy….Wow!
Fuck papa johns. Their pizza sucks anyway. What are they paying their employees anyway? If he feels that his product is that good, then just tack on the 10-20 cents per pie. Shit why not 50 cents per pie. This is America! People pay for heart busting food anyway no matter the cost!
It doesn’t matter. The world is changing and as much as we like to think we have control over it, we really don’t. We vote but evolution’s plan is so much bigger and stronger. Ask the dinosaurs.
This year’s election was about two things: VOTING in-line with evolution, and VOTING against it. Simple. These foolish CEOs might be extremely smart in some areas of life but lack spiritual discernment. Church! (secular btw)
The Idea of boycotting a company doesn’t work the same as it did back in the 50′s or 60′s. When people boycotted a local mom and pop business. Boycotting a major corporation is plain on pointless. Plus the only person you would be hurting is the employee who is probably making on average is minium wage. She or he are more than likely working two or three jobs to support themselves and their family. Also, 10 or 20 cents added cost, can be costly for any business.
Yes, But why broadcast what you’ll have to do because a certain administration’s law. Adjust! Now how about company moral.
This d bag is running a promotion to give away 2 million free pizzas. Dumb @ss. It’s costing his company more than AHA will. He could actually offset cost by raising the price 5 cents, but that’s neither here nor there. This man is a prime example of why trickle down economics do NOT work. The only thing this rich CEO with a golf course ON his property is willing to allow to trickle down, is the COST. This man has a HUGE mansion. Rather than offer a nickel to support the people who hold his business up, this man would rather pout and whine about Obama winning the election. What a sad sorry sack of shat. Not only should we Boycott Papa Johns, Jimmy John’s, Applebee’s and any other business who would DARE in this economy to threaten the people they barely pay minimum wage to, the employees should all stage a massive WALK OUT.
F**k Papa Johns.
You people are stupid. You all have no idea how this outside influence of a forces health care bill will influence the markets. It’s all about risk management.
