I am in Michigan boycotting the laundromat, ran by an evil Asian guy and his wife. It is on Packard. I am also boycotting a dollar store called "The Dollar Store," ran by an evil, lying, racist woman and her husband. It is located on Emerick . If you want to know more, email me. Do support me in this boycott, though. These folks cant get away with the way they treat people.
why boycott a company because a man practiced his first amendment and has an opinion?? It is certainly your right to boycott, but think about it for a second.... does it make sense??
This man has created a meca or corporations, 5% profit donations, 1 year salary to donations, the most progressive employer/health care reform, buying as local as possible.
he believes in health care reform, hes not a death merchant.. just not a gov't reform.
Id be happy to take a shit on your toothbrush, my shit is 100% organic with no fillers or preservatives. All Ive got is corn flavor at the moment, but I assure you the corn is all natural and locally grown.
You are 28! What does this do for you? Does it bring peace, love, joy? Does it spread any of these? Whatever the reason you feel such hate and anger, know it is a choice what you fill your cup with, as it is a choice what you choose to allow others to put into your cup. If you find the wisdom in this and become humble and loving, there is nothing here that will be of any interest to me. These things you expressed are not of those things I choose to engage in. Food for thought. Peace always.
the short answer is yes...dropping a warm turd on your toothbrush would bring me much peace, love, and joy. and yes my turd has been known to spread all of these (in addition to spreading with ease with the use of a butter knife of course ;) as far as filling your cup...are we talkin 2 girls 1 cup style or you got somethin else in mind, im game for whatever. anyways offer still stands lemme know. gooooooo whole foods!!!!
Damn it! If liberals are so smart, how come they're always getting the wool pulled over their eyes? Here they help make Whole foods a huge success only to find out the owner is a conservative. He must be Bush in sheep's clothing. Now they have to get all grass-roots on his ass with free range egg on their faces.
Liberals are fascist hypocrites when they attack WholeFoods because they attack a guy who has a salary of $1, while defending that union boss opposing him. His salary? $625,000!
Excellent point. Greedy Unions are part of the problem with this country now. They once served a purpose, they no longer do!!! Union dues paying members should wake up to the greed!!!
OMG !...Are you guys fucking serious? (rhetorical). Yeah , let's boycott Whole Foods and hit the employees pocket book. This whole issue is ridiculous. You liberals stop your fucking crying and get a clue.
but that's the way it is. If THEY have an opinion, they are the first to scream about their 1st Amendment rights....rights given to them by better people than themselves (i.e. shed blood for a worthy cause). But God forbid someone has an opinion that runs counter to them. Then, you are a Nazi, or they wish you were hit by a bus, or they are going to piss in your food. They are worthless life forms. Period.
ImDiscombobulated Boycott for speaking fallacies and propaganda that is profit-based instead of patient-based. Basically WE THE PEOPLE are boycotting with our free speech rights against corporatist greed that is against healthcare for WE THE PEOPLE.
ImDiscombobulated Mackey has noone but himself to blame for this boycott against Whole Foods. People did not just wake up one day and say "ya know, I'm gonna boycott Whole Foods". Mackey has destroyed his employees jobs from within, with his words about high deductibles on his "free" insurance. It is a childish lie that doctors will work for free. Please study the basics before commenting. Single Payer will tax everyone for less than insurance, and healthcare will then be guaranteed for all.
ImDiscombobulated I READ HIS WORDS. That 's ridiculous , he was bragging about his HIGH deductible insurance that he is trying to sell to the rest of the corporate world so they can sponge off us even more! Nobody in Single Payer PROFITS off of healthcare, everybody is IN Single Payer, nobody is out!!! Private insurance does not even allow their own customers total coverage! How high does your deductible have to go before you cry uncle and say ENUF ALREADY ?!? Stop being such a silly sucker.
Right some dr's suck and are dishonest but the gov is far more cut-throat when you get to the nitty gritty. It's also part of the obamaplan to flush more of what we don't have.
Don't you see the bigger picture? NOTHING IS FREE.
ImDiscombobulated The government is WE THE PEOPLE, so we decide who is in the government through our VOTES. We have no power over insurance corporations and their outrageous profits for less and less coverage . When our representatives vote Single Payer (Medicare for all) into law, that will instantly eliminate the moneygrabbing insurance middlemen and their greedy profits that are needless to healthcare. All monies for Single Payer would go to patient-care not profits.
I think it is ridiculous to boycott Whole Foods. John Mackey is a wonderful and fair man with a good plan. BHO should listen to him. I'm off now to purchase my groceries from Whole Foods. I do not want the employees of Whole Foods to join the ranks of the unemployed!!! What is wrong with these Boycott nut jobs??
Actually I have grown a huge amount of tomatoes this year, cherry, roma, big boy and yellow pear. Even with the cooler temps, they have grown beautifully and very tasty.
DON'T COME BACK!!!! We don't need you!I spend $20 per pound on Proscutto alone!!!! and that's only for 2 sandwiches! Nobody needs your stupid broke-ass Lib-money!!! Save it! Maybe you could buy yourself some common sense! Wait until the Local Growers get wind of this. You stupid Libs are going wake up with pitchforks shoved up your asses!
Thanks for the comment. Man you sure piss off alot of folks. If you dont continue to by foods at WF then you will lay off a bunch of people... Heck Like Lenny Bruce said. "they're just words" I like this guy's actions for his employees and the fact that he doesnt take a salary. Good luck on the boycott. Nice debating with you.
Those that agree...we already know your time in this country is limited...smaller and smaller the numbers gets...we have patience, and will just wait you pieces of garbage out....YES!!!!
Is that so? Is that why NObama's numbers continue to nosedive? People in this country are getting tired of socialist liberals. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it turns to the streets some time in the next few years. What will all you anti-gun losers do? Throw granola at them? LMFAO
thanks. It's true, though. They only run their mouths when they are behind a computer screen or are protected by the law. If a foreign country's army landed on our soil and needed info, they'd fold like cheap cameras and whine like babies to save their own asses. They make me want to puke when I think of all the brave men and women who risk their lives so the sissies can spout their hate. I have no use for them.
As you wish...and we will tell the mexicans that pick the crops to piss on the pre-processed food....so people like you will get sick and die of what ever eating pissed on food gets ya...hahahaha
Piss on the food? That's not very upfront. If I didn't know better, I'd swear you were a coward by the way you do things behind the scenes. Oh wait! You ARE a coward. Piss in my food, Holmes. I'll even put it in a bowl for ya so you don't get that piss on you. And after you are done, I'll be making you eat it. Now go away before I tell mom you are on her laptop again.
Why are you such a bitter little man? What happened to you in your life to make you this evil? Did your Mother hurt you? Did your Father leave you? I don't understand such ugliness!!!! Have you no happiness in your life?
Let me get this straight. Obama's health care plan will be written by a committee whose head says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it and whose members will be exempt from it, signed by a president who smokes, funded by a treasury chief who did not pay his taxes, overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that is broke. What could possibly go wrong?
WHat I don't get is...if it's the insurance co. that are causing the rise in health care. Why is that people won't boycott them? No gov. needed on that one.
Hey Oberman. I am going to shop at Whole Foods now. In fact as an economic development director my wife is in contact with them to locate a new store in our town. I am a health fanatic now as a cancer survivor you can kiss my grits. Love you man... :-)
Mackey is a dumb businessman because he offended the lion's share of his base (health fanatic, animal rights, bleeding-heart liberals). No doubt, it's the elitist "Latte Liberals" who are the main ones that shop at the elitist, over-priced grocery store.
Also, it's funny how Greta Van Susteren and others defend Mackey's right to express his opinions, yet maligned Oprah for doing the same. Oprah's also a businesswoman who employs a lot of people, but that didn't seem to matter at the time.
John Mackey is for tort reform and insurance portability across state lines and he is a GREAT employer who takes very good care of his employees through extremely high quality health insurance. I am proud to shop at Whole Foods.
queef olbermann quit bitching all you do is slam the right on the show you dont even report important news. we all know only liberals eat whole foods anyways.
I bought groceries at whole food a few days ago, same day I saw in the news what John Mackey said, and yesterday I returned all my groceries. I was happy to get my money back and I WILL NOT SHOP THERE ANYMORE.....I'll use FRESHDIRECT now.
Whole foods is a great company....they take excellent care of their employee's...the CEO of this company gives millions to charities and to people in need. I would never boycott this company for political reasons. This is just plain dumb...btw I was a huge Obama supporter, but not anymore, This crack head from Chicago is trying to ruin this country. I wish I could take back my vote.
Your Healthcare will be worse than it is now.Whats the use of having Healthcare if they Will NOT provide test or treatments?At least now, if you have no insurance You can get treatment at the ER.With Obama Care your care will be rationed,and be based on age and cost.
It is NOT working in Canada and other
countries.
If its so good let the Congress, House and Senate try it out first.
Well, guess it is more important to "win" than to take into consideration that 50,000 people are employed there or that he has $1/year salary and donates a ton of money. Agree or not, it is important that EVERYONE's voice is heard.
This guy walks the walk and does it on his own dime, he pays good wages, has a fully funded health plan for his workers and provided benefits for homosexual in domestic partnerships. He does all the things liberals clamor about but are never willing to pay for on their own dime for. I want to see upper class liberals get together and start up a healthcare fund for the poor, without making the rest of us pay for it.
I usually go to the bigger chain food stores, but i do go there for bread and coffee some times and w/e i need to supplement that i don't get form the bigger chains.
So i spend around 100$ or so a month there. I don't even want to shop there usually but they are so Fing close to where i live :p.
I don't think I have ever shopped at whole foods. But after hearing about this ludicrous boycott I think I shall start shopping there. I hear their prices were steep to begin with. Hmm...why would Liberals pay more for the same foods that grow from the ground?
Still, whomever owns that store (or any other business) is still entitled, for the time being, to express their opinions as they see fit. Socialized medicine has no place in the United States, neither does Obama "care"!
Amen John whole foods has a new customer with me!!! As far as Olbermann is concerned I wouldnt worry about what he says, his ratings are about 1/5th of O'riellys. Confuse a Liberal......think for yourself - and oh yea Fuck Obama
I am boycotting Whole Foods. I have a little co op that has better food and isn't run by a greedy bastard like John Mackey. I bet Mr. Mackey has great healthcare. What a Douchebag. BOYCOTT WHOLE FOODS.
He DOES have good health care. Have you read it? Of course not. You libs never do. You are so full of crap. Try reading for a change. Then people wouldn't see you libs for the douches YOU are.
From his article: "Whole Foods Market pays 100% of the premiums for all our team members who work 30 hours or more per week (about 89% of all team members) .... We also provide up to $1,800 per year in additional health-care dollars through deposits into employees' Personal Wellness Accounts to spend as they choose on their own health and wellness. Money not spent in one year rolls over to the next and grows over time.
And the rest of the coverage: Our team members therefore spend their own health-care dollars until the annual deductible is covered (about $2,500) and the insurance plan kicks in. This creates incentives to spend the first $2,500 more carefully."
Lastly, don't be jealous of someone who has made something out of himself. I know you libs are so incompetent that you need the govt to wipe your butts for you, but he's a self-made man. Don't be jealous. Success should not be a scary word. Afterall, it's you libs who decided to be concert celloists or artists. LMFAO
I am not jealous of him at all. I just think he is a wolf in sheeps clothing. He tries to act like he cares about people and the environment but really all he cares about is lining his pockets. I just choose not to do business with such a selfish unethical person. And Afterall, it is you and he who chose to be douchebags. Why should you care.
you ARE jealous, and you ARE lazy. You want the govt to take care of you, like every other lib does. He's a CEO of a major food company. Why shouldn't he make profits. YOU would do the same thing in his shoes. So that makes him greedy? Or just successful? Read his article in the WSJ. You are full of crap. Go ahead and see what he gives his employees for health care. Greedy people don't give their people insurance plans like that. So go about your life being stupid if you wish.
I own two businesses and work harder than you do, we need a public option . We have 50 million uninsured, insurance premiums have doubled in the past 10 years and continue to rise, the insurance companies make money by denying care. Every other western nation has universal health care. Insurance companies will not cover pre-existing conditions. 60 percent of bankruptcies are attributable to medical costs. Why would anyone be against health care reform?
First, you don't know if you work harder than me or not. Second, we don't "need" a public option. Apparently you don't know how it works. We'd have an "option" for about 2-3 years, until every business figured out they could sign up their employees for the free plan then the private plan will be gone. We don't need a new plan. What we need is to overhaul the one we have, starting with tort reform. The public are mostly responsible for that mess with their bogus law suits over everything.
ravens...please go buy a dildo so your wife can get properly laid. You are visiting a liberal channel - contrary to all of us who NEVER visit fuck news...
You don't like us yet it's sort of passive-agressive behaviour...GO FUCK YOURSELF.They don't care about my business????? BWAHAHAHAH Maybe that's the reason the Whore Food manager called me today and offered "free " stuff. You must be poor. Trailer trash... Now go get your kids and lend them to a porno industry like it's so typical of you ignorant rednecks. Don't forget to pimp the wife too. Next time you need money for crack go get a job you useless pieve of shit.
Wow, you whiney libs really get nasty when you open your co*ksuckers. And you think conservatives are nasty? No one is as nasty as a liberal wh*re. Get off your back and get a job, loser. I don't owe you ANYTHING!!!!
The thing I find interesting is EVERY single liberal has spelling issues, which indicates to me you and your ilk were never properly educated. Guess all that music school really paid off. But you know what they say......No smarts, no job. Go back to school, and get some health insurance.
why are all these protesters against the bill the ones with the worst spelling and grammar issues? Have you seen their signs? they cant even space it out right. You know why there arent many libs out at those protests? Because they have jobs.
Are you trying to be sarcastic? The unemployed and uneducated voters overwhelmingly support the Democratic Party, election after election. Look at exit polls from any presidential election the last 40 years.
perhaps you should let her borrow yours, since you are too much of a tool to get a real man. Keep protesting, dear. You may meet the hippie of your dreams one day. LMFAO
You hardly make even 50 k /year. So go shove your poverty up your fatass.Don't bother to comment. The moment I see your disgraced name I will immediately delete it.Go to a University already.
Aww....is this where the frustrated lib whines because her hero NObama is ditching her public option? Actually, between my wife and I we make in the lower 7-figures, so stop fronting, bi*ch. Guess you should've studied something worthwhile instead of music. Maybe you'd have health insurance like me. Now you want the govt to pay for your idiotic decisions in life. Tough crap. Get a real job and stop whining, you mooch!!!!!
It's not just Whole Foods we need to boycott. Cut out all discretionary spending. If we only purchase things we absolutely need eventually they will give us adequate health care reform. Hit them all in their pocketbooks. If we unite, we can overcome. Stay home. Eat at home. Watch TV. Wait.
It's not about spellchecking, knucklehead. Take this post for instance. You said, "WAIST your time," when it's "WASTE your time." See? It's not about the spellcheck, it's more that you are some uneducated college student who gets marginal grades, and can't get a decent job because of your limitations. As a result, you want the government to take care of you, to take the easy way out like you have been doing your whole life and are now paying the price for by flipping burgers. LMAO
Sooooo....have any of you tree huggers who are going to boycott Whole Foods thought of the repercussions to their employees? If business goes down, he will have to lay off people. They will lose their health coverage and benefits, adding to the ever growing unemployment figures under "The Annointed One." Whole Foods gives their people a good health care package. You loons need to read up on that and stop with your crap of focusing in on one word in an article. What dumba**es.
Sure I have thought of that. I'm going to direct my money from his pockets to my local farmers by attending more farmer markets, thereby keeping my money local. This will enable these families in my community to afford the rapidly rising costs of their health insurance. Also the only one getting anointed(with one n by the way) is you, with my giant orgasm of truth.
Hey! people the president said it we spend more money on policing the world and new weaponry, we had runned out enemies, China is comunist now we do bussines with them, more than half of our labor force is gone now people is competing for under pay jobs and no health insurance, unless we stop this run away train there wont be any benefits at all for the great majority of Americans, time to get intervention and lower cost of health, how important is your life? what's best for your family?
Oh really? So how come there is a rising voice in the streets directed at NObama and his ilk? How come the Bluedog Dems are breaking ranks with NObama? Things aren't as you might think. People are starting to see NObama for what he is. It all started with him running his mouth on the Gates thing. It caused people to listen up and now they are catching on to his BS. They are also seeing liberalism for the mental disease that it is.
BAHAHAHAHAHA.........how does that help your "tax" dollars get into a rich conservative's hands? You better believe the biggest fraud and crook out there (hint: he's in the White House) is raping you of your tax dollars. Since you libs love your progressive president, how come he's not going to take the public option for himself and his family, and admitted as much when it comes to his own family? And how come he speaks of the wealthy like it's a disease when he made over $4 million last year?
I quit shopping Whole Foods after they scarfed up Wild Oats and the prices went Sky high! I shop Sunflower and Sprouts and get better quality, nicer attitudes and much easier on the budget prices. If it's not on sale, I don't buy it. When it is, I buy it up! Cheaper and better.
Celtic hi girl jjust went to Whore Foods site and left a message to them, also called the store where I used to shop - walking distance from my house and spoke to the manager.
Mackey's the man. Get a job, get a life. No one is paying attention to you libs anymore. They work for a living. Now get off your butt and get a job so we can end this discussion.
I have a job, I am liberal, and I have benefits. Why don't you take your pathetic stereotypes to youreself. We need to have single payer collective bargaining to drive down costs, and free our businesses of the burden. dumb dee dumb dumb dumb
First of all, brain surgeon, it's "yourself." You are obviously a young college aged kid who doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. Single-payer doesn' t work in ANY country. And we can drive down costs without resorting to that. Tort reform is the biggest way. The problem with your idea (and NObama's) is once we have it, it will drive private insurance out of business. I like mine. You will lose yours, too. I wish you morons would think before you speak. Use common sense sometime.
Obviously I am the one with an education. You are obviously a toothless brainwashed religous hick, who doesn't know how bad his cholesterol is interfering with his brain functions. I'm the brain surgeon, I know. No private health insurance has ever worked. We pay more for our healthcare than anyone. Even though you have benefits, you will be bankrupt when you finally have that heart attack, you fat old white fart. I didn't realize how fun it was to make up stuff about others like you do.
"Obviously" you have education? That's not obvious at all. And I'm a toothless hick? There's that name calling which shows you have no argument. Oh that's right.....that only applies to conservatives. Yet another hypocrisy of the left exposed. Hey got a question since you are so smart....if you boycott WF, what happens to all the employees when he loses business? Unemployment? Loss of health insurance? What a stooge.
I never resort to insults. I came to this video and saw endless attacks you had made, calling people idiots, hippys, and drunks. I had to act. Like I said I wanted to show you how aweful you sound by using fire to fight fire. No hipocrisy, just good ole fashioned humor. Finally to answer your question: WF probably won't go out of business, and the money not spent there will be spent elsewhere on the economy. It's not like we're burning that money. Please get rid of your stupid box.
Actually, brainiac, it's "hippies," and "hypocrisy." Looks like the freshman college puke needs his spellcheck.
Ok, so you spend the money elsewhere. How does that help his employees? You basically screw them because he comes out and says he supports private insurance? And you dorks think conservatives are vindictive? You libs are stupid beyond words. And it's not about burning money. They are printing extra money inflating the market. Or didn't your Census report tell you that? LMFAO
Calling everyone on spelling is your way of circumventing there arguments. Petty things. The bottom line isn't how we can help his employees. It's called the consumers buying power. Why do we need to support his employees over anothers? Vindictive? Republicans are so vindictive they advocate torture. No words huh? That's because you can't state an argument that's defendable. What is better than the Census at counting the uninsured and what are there statistics? I bet you'll dodge some more
What torture? You mean the waterboarding that the DEMOCRATS approved, then conveniently got amnesia? And who cares anyway? If it gets info, then good. I'd waterboard 100 of them if it stopped another 9/11. You libs have short memories. So, getting back to the matter at hand, what are you boycotting anyway? His opinion? That's vindictive.
and I'm not calling everyone on spelling, just you. You like to talk about how educated you are. Well, let's see it then in the most basic of ways. I can't count on you to know what the hell you are talking about if you don't even have command of the English language. So it's not petty, just showing people you aren't even smart on the "petty" stuff.
well, I'd love to stay on here all night and school your ignorant a**, but mom said it's time for your bath and I've got to get back to work to pay for my private health plan. LMFAO
If it wasn't for the regular internet spanking I don't see how anyone could be online so much as you. Apparently you go all night long. If only you would fight for collective bargaining, then you could finally get your viagra cheaper.
Sure you do. Can I get fries with that? That's why you are pushing for the NObama program, because you aren't eligible or you don't want to pay so much because of your paultry salary. Should've studied harder. Don't hurt the rest of us because of your stupidity. By the way, since there are over 300 million people in the US, how does it make sense to help 46 million to hurt 254 million? Obviously math is not your strong suit.
Listen you waste of space that should be taxed for breathing, there are more liberals that make 100k or better in this country than you knuckle dragging conservative. And the fact that we are will to pay a little more into a system that benefits unworthy people such as yourself, shows that even though you should have never been born, we are willing to keep ur sorry ass alive because we are decent people.
LMFAO..yea, I hear all of them on here talking about boycotting Wholefoods. What a joke! Oh yea, you are real decent. Talking about pissing in food & wiping people off the face of the earth. You lousy libs just want a handout, want Uncle Obama to wipe your ass for you because you are too stupid to fend for yourself, which is why you never achieved in your life. I like my healthcare, & want to keep it. I don't want to wait in long lines & not get care because you never achieved in school.
WTF is wrong with you liberal idiots? Do you really think a public option will save you if you get cancer? You think you won't have to wait months for treatment? If you had private insurance like mine, you could call up the doc, set an appt right away and go. Period. What's wrong with that? You guys just want the public option because when you were supposed to be in school, you were getting high and studying music. Now you want us to pay for your bad decisions. F OFF!!!!!
RavensFan2812 Doorknobs have more brains than you. I went to the ER on June 26th because my doctor could not see me that day, and it was a Friday! Paid 250 deductible too, and I HAVE insurance.
What's your point? You have to satisfy a deductible every year. So? And if your doc couldn't see you, you think that will be any better when there are less doctors and longer lines? Get a clue.
LOL, it'll be worse when ALL have gubbamint insurance getting worse than you have now and more than your deductible in taxes toward a failed system having no choice in sorry docs like you chose.
What gubmint entity are you happy with now? If ever having to deal with them you learn never to go that route ever again because it SUCKS!
No one said the system now is perfect but your "change" is definitely far far worse.
ImDiscombobulated You are grossly uninformed . Medicare is one of the most successful govt health insurance programs. "Communist" is a lie, we VOTE for our programs, My mother used Medicare to have Hospice in her home when she died of pancreatic cancer, and my 83 year old Dad is on Medicare and VA now too. With EVERYONE on Medicare, the profits completely go away and everyone saves money AND has more choices of PRIVATE doctors & specialists.
....But I can always hope that a bus comes and you end up under it. YAY!!! since you are dead, you know longer steal the air the rest of us have to breathe...YAY!!! So when you are making 187k like me then we can have a real discussion, but walmart doesnt pay that kinda money to cashiers now do they...
A bus? Would that be the bus you ride because you studied music instead of engineering? LMFAO
And why are you bringing up your paultry salary? Kinda like guys comparing di*k size, isn't it? We make 6 times that, so eat sh*t, loser. You aren't making 187k. No one would pay that much money to some douche who comes on here and talks about people getting hit by busses and pissing in food. Keep dreaming. Maybe that's the 187k you "thought" Uncle NObama was going to give you. Fools. Wake up, stupid!
What? See, if you had stayed in school, you'd have a job right now with benefits, and you'd be coherant enough to spell correctly so the rest of us could read what you are writing. Geez. Get a life.
"Whole Foods pays 100 percent of the premiums, but not the deductibles, for all employees who work 30 hours or more per week, or about 89 percent of its workers, and gives each employee $1,800 per year in "health-care dollars" that can be used for health and wellness expenses, according to the article."
I FAIL TO SEE THE PROBLEM! Besides, if you hippies boycott them, where will you get all your Tofu, Ginsing and tree bark?
hippies cannot afford to shop there as you might know. Albertson has upstanding quality services here in Florida and we already approached them and they will be glad to provide us with whatever we need.
actually, you are wrong. There are "hippies" from the 60's who were huge hippies and still consider themselves so. And they have jobs and contribute to society.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
He doesn't have PR work to do. Screw the hippies. They need him more than he needs them. And he has a pretty good plan for his employees. This was from an article:
"Whole Foods pays 100 percent of the premiums, but not the deductibles, for all employees who work 30 hours or more per week, or about 89 percent of its workers, and gives each employee $1,800 per year in "health-care dollars" that can be used for health and wellness expenses, according to the article."
Channel? And it's "douche" idiot. Why would I go to a trailer park and shoot a family? I don't live in a trailer. This is typical left wing dialogue...from the "touchy feely" crowd no less. You people are a joke.
The ONLY reason you want free health care is so you can spend all day unbathed protesting something and not getting a job to pay for your health care. You are worthless.
Blah Blah Blah, here you go with your stereotyping. The majority of Americans are on the left and you have so many nasty things to say about us. By the way you probably do live in a trailer.
actually, college puke, I don't like in a trailer, and I have private health insurance and love it. Go to the doc of my choice. No preauthorization. It's awesome.
The system that he is supporting that has left 46 million Americans without health insurance, and the rest that do have insurance, but are paying way too much for too little. Read a book about reality once in a while please.
46 million Americans? HAHAHAHA. Where did you get that figure? Obama's press secretary? How many of those 46 million are illegal? How many are college pukes like you who don't feel the need to carry it because they are young and healthy? How many are without it for a mere few weeks or months because they lost a job and don't have it until they get a new one? Stop talking so much crap. You just look silly.
Uh try the U.S. Census Bureau., August 2008. I will say it again, please read a book about reality once in a while, your gut is not a source of knowledge you flannel wearing, sheep banging, white supremicist, honky. Healthy people get sick to, and then become a burden on our medicare system.
The Census Bureau. And I suppose the Census Bureau captures the illegals, and briefly out of work people, as well as college pukes like yourself who don't know the difference between your "to, two and too's" yet seem to know every thing else. You are full of crap. And so is NObama. Socialized medicine has never worked in ANY country. Go read up on that. You one of those Canadian homeys?

For Profit has never worked in any country, single payer works great. Now I'm Canadian? I wonder what other type of portrait you'll draw up next.
I am in Michigan boycotting the laundromat, ran by an evil Asian guy and his wife. It is on Packard. I am also boycotting a dollar store called "The Dollar Store," ran by an evil, lying, racist woman and her husband. It is located on Emerick . If you want to know more, email me. Do support me in this boycott, though. These folks cant get away with the way they treat people.

why boycott a company because a man practiced his first amendment and has an opinion?? It is certainly your right to boycott, but think about it for a second.... does it make sense??
This man has created a meca or corporations, 5% profit donations, 1 year salary to donations, the most progressive employer/health care reform, buying as local as possible.
he believes in health care reform, hes not a death merchant.. just not a gov't reform.

ImDiscombobulated Mackey has noone but himself to blame for this boycott against Whole Foods. People did not just wake up one day and say "ya know, I'm gonna boycott Whole Foods". Mackey has destroyed his employees jobs from within, with his words about high deductibles on his "free" insurance. It is a childish lie that doctors will work for free. Please study the basics before commenting. Single Payer will tax everyone for less than insurance, and healthcare will then be guaranteed for all.
Yankhadenough 2 years ago
Mackey did nothing but speak about his system that works and he is vilified for speaking free speech on valuable info.
Because you got a stick up yer ass doesn't mean his Whole co. should suffer because he gave truthful unbiased info and no pull in gov to do so.

I don't owe you jack for your health problems. Neither does the rest of America and it's WE THE PEOPLE. Yup, damn right it's NOT FREE.

ImDiscombobulated I READ HIS WORDS. That 's ridiculous , he was bragging about his HIGH deductible insurance that he is trying to sell to the rest of the corporate world so they can sponge off us even more! Nobody in Single Payer PROFITS off of healthcare, everybody is IN Single Payer, nobody is out!!! Private insurance does not even allow their own customers total coverage! How high does your deductible have to go before you cry uncle and say ENUF ALREADY ?!? Stop being such a silly sucker.
Yankhadenough 2 years ago
Right some dr's suck and are dishonest but the gov is far more cut-throat when you get to the nitty gritty. It's also part of the obamaplan to flush more of what we don't have.

ImDiscombobulated 2 years ago
ImDiscombobulated The government is WE THE PEOPLE, so we decide who is in the government through our VOTES. We have no power over insurance corporations and their outrageous profits for less and less coverage . When our representatives vote Single Payer (Medicare for all) into law, that will instantly eliminate the moneygrabbing insurance middlemen and their greedy profits that are needless to healthcare. All monies for Single Payer would go to patient-care not profits.

Also, it's funny how Greta Van Susteren and others defend Mackey's right to express his opinions, yet maligned Oprah for doing the same. Oprah's also a businesswoman who employs a lot of people, but that didn't seem to matter at the time.

RavensFan2812 2 years ago
From his article: "Whole Foods Market pays 100% of the premiums for all our team members who work 30 hours or more per week (about 89% of all team members) .... We also provide up to $1,800 per year in additional health-care dollars through deposits into employees' Personal Wellness Accounts to spend as they choose on their own health and wellness. Money not spent in one year rolls over to the next and grows over time.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
And the rest of the coverage: Our team members therefore spend their own health-care dollars until the annual deductible is covered (about $2,500) and the insurance plan kicks in. This creates incentives to spend the first $2,500 more carefully."

I own two businesses and work harder than you do, we need a public option . We have 50 million uninsured, insurance premiums have doubled in the past 10 years and continue to rise, the insurance companies make money by denying care. Every other western nation has universal health care. Insurance companies will not cover pre-existing conditions. 60 percent of bankruptcies are attributable to medical costs. Why would anyone be against health care reform?
chinacat22 2 years ago
First, you don't know if you work harder than me or not. Second, we don't "need" a public option. Apparently you don't know how it works. We'd have an "option" for about 2-3 years, until every business figured out they could sign up their employees for the free plan then the private plan will be gone. We don't need a new plan. What we need is to overhaul the one we have, starting with tort reform. The public are mostly responsible for that mess with their bogus law suits over everything.

First of all, brain surgeon, it's "yourself." You are obviously a young college aged kid who doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. Single-payer doesn' t work in ANY country. And we can drive down costs without resorting to that. Tort reform is the biggest way. The problem with your idea (and NObama's) is once we have it, it will drive private insurance out of business. I like mine. You will lose yours, too. I wish you morons would think before you speak. Use common sense sometime.

Obviously I am the one with an education. You are obviously a toothless brainwashed religous hick, who doesn't know how bad his cholesterol is interfering with his brain functions. I'm the brain surgeon, I know. No private health insurance has ever worked. We pay more for our healthcare than anyone. Even though you have benefits, you will be bankrupt when you finally have that heart attack, you fat old white fart. I didn't realize how fun it was to make up stuff about others like you do.
phantomcreamer 2 years ago
"Obviously" you have education? That's not obvious at all. And I'm a toothless hick? There's that name calling which shows you have no argument. Oh that's right.....that only applies to conservatives. Yet another hypocrisy of the left exposed. Hey got a question since you are so smart....if you boycott WF, what happens to all the employees when he loses business? Unemployment? Loss of health insurance? What a stooge.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
I never resort to insults. I came to this video and saw endless attacks you had made, calling people idiots, hippys, and drunks. I had to act. Like I said I wanted to show you how aweful you sound by using fire to fight fire. No hipocrisy, just good ole fashioned humor. Finally to answer your question: WF probably won't go out of business, and the money not spent there will be spent elsewhere on the economy. It's not like we're burning that money. Please get rid of your stupid box.
phantomcreamer 2 years ago
Actually, brainiac, it's "hippies," and "hypocrisy." Looks like the freshman college puke needs his spellcheck.
Ok, so you spend the money elsewhere. How does that help his employees? You basically screw them because he comes out and says he supports private insurance? And you dorks think conservatives are vindictive? You libs are stupid beyond words. And it's not about burning money. They are printing extra money inflating the market. Or didn't your Census report tell you that? LMFAO
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
Calling everyone on spelling is your way of circumventing there arguments. Petty things. The bottom line isn't how we can help his employees. It's called the consumers buying power. Why do we need to support his employees over anothers? Vindictive? Republicans are so vindictive they advocate torture. No words huh? That's because you can't state an argument that's defendable. What is better than the Census at counting the uninsured and what are there statistics? I bet you'll dodge some more
phantomcreamer 2 years ago
What torture? You mean the waterboarding that the DEMOCRATS approved, then conveniently got amnesia? And who cares anyway? If it gets info, then good. I'd waterboard 100 of them if it stopped another 9/11. You libs have short memories. So, getting back to the matter at hand, what are you boycotting anyway? His opinion? That's vindictive.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
and I'm not calling everyone on spelling, just you. You like to talk about how educated you are. Well, let's see it then in the most basic of ways. I can't count on you to know what the hell you are talking about if you don't even have command of the English language. So it's not petty, just showing people you aren't even smart on the "petty" stuff.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
Oh, missed one.....it's "awful," smart guy. LMFAO. You aren't even in college yet, are you? Even worse, a high school lib. YUCK!

If it wasn't for the regular internet spanking I don't see how anyone could be online so much as you. Apparently you go all night long. If only you would fight for collective bargaining, then you could finally get your viagra cheaper.
phantomcreamer 2 years ago
I have collective bargaining already. And it got me my private insurance that I don't want all the unworking people to take.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
Sure you do. Can I get fries with that? That's why you are pushing for the NObama program, because you aren't eligible or you don't want to pay so much because of your paultry salary. Should've studied harder. Don't hurt the rest of us because of your stupidity. By the way, since there are over 300 million people in the US, how does it make sense to help 46 million to hurt 254 million? Obviously math is not your strong suit.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
Listen you waste of space that should be taxed for breathing, there are more liberals that make 100k or better in this country than you knuckle dragging conservative. And the fact that we are will to pay a little more into a system that benefits unworthy people such as yourself, shows that even though you should have never been born, we are willing to keep ur sorry ass alive because we are decent people.
Director4u2c 2 years ago
LMFAO..yea, I hear all of them on here talking about boycotting Wholefoods. What a joke! Oh yea, you are real decent. Talking about pissing in food & wiping people off the face of the earth. You lousy libs just want a handout, want Uncle Obama to wipe your ass for you because you are too stupid to fend for yourself, which is why you never achieved in your life. I like my healthcare, & want to keep it. I don't want to wait in long lines & not get care because you never achieved in school.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
RavensFan2812 yeah, you sound like such an achiever... wait till you get cancer, then see how much your for-profit insurance thinks of you.
Yankhadenough 2 years ago
WTF is wrong with you liberal idiots? Do you really think a public option will save you if you get cancer? You think you won't have to wait months for treatment? If you had private insurance like mine, you could call up the doc, set an appt right away and go. Period. What's wrong with that? You guys just want the public option because when you were supposed to be in school, you were getting high and studying music. Now you want us to pay for your bad decisions. F OFF!!!!!

RavensFan2812 Doorknobs have more brains than you. I went to the ER on June 26th because my doctor could not see me that day, and it was a Friday! Paid 250 deductible too, and I HAVE insurance.
Yankhadenough 2 years ago
What's your point? You have to satisfy a deductible every year. So? And if your doc couldn't see you, you think that will be any better when there are less doctors and longer lines? Get a clue.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
Doorknob.
See what yer up against? The clueless.
ImDiscombobulated 2 years ago
LOL, it'll be worse when ALL have gubbamint insurance getting worse than you have now and more than your deductible in taxes toward a failed system having no choice in sorry docs like you chose.
What gubmint entity are you happy with now? If ever having to deal with them you learn never to go that route ever again because it SUCKS!
No one said the system now is perfect but your "change" is definitely far far worse.
It's actually condoning communism.
You have way too much faith in the system.
ImDiscombobulated 2 years ago
ImDiscombobulated You are grossly uninformed . Medicare is one of the most successful govt health insurance programs. "Communist" is a lie, we VOTE for our programs, My mother used Medicare to have Hospice in her home when she died of pancreatic cancer, and my 83 year old Dad is on Medicare and VA now too. With EVERYONE on Medicare, the profits completely go away and everyone saves money AND has more choices of PRIVATE doctors & specialists.

So when you are making 187k like me then we can have a real discussion, but walmart doesnt pay that kinda money to cashiers now do they...

A bus? Would that be the bus you ride because you studied music instead of engineering? LMFAO
And why are you bringing up your paultry salary? Kinda like guys comparing di*k size, isn't it? We make 6 times that, so eat sh*t, loser. You aren't making 187k. No one would pay that much money to some douche who comes on here and talks about people getting hit by busses and pissing in food. Keep dreaming. Maybe that's the 187k you "thought" Uncle NObama was going to give you. Fools. Wake up, stupid!

"Whole Foods pays 100 percent of the premiums, but not the deductibles, for all employees who work 30 hours or more per week, or about 89 percent of its workers, and gives each employee $1,800 per year in "health-care dollars" that can be used for health and wellness expenses, according to the article."
I FAIL TO SEE THE PROBLEM! Besides, if you hippies boycott them, where will you get all your Tofu, Ginsing and tree bark?
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
hippies cannot afford to shop there as you might know. Albertson has upstanding quality services here in Florida and we already approached them and they will be glad to provide us with whatever we need.
classicallady 2 years ago
actually, you are wrong. There are "hippies" from the 60's who were huge hippies and still consider themselves so. And they have jobs and contribute to society.
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
Never shopped there, I always use my local farmer's markets or farms. Whole Foods was always overpriced, IMHO.
Not a good move, what with their labor disputes against allowing unions, that was enough to convince me not to shop there anyway.
The CEO has a lot of damage control PR work to do, that's for sure.

He doesn't have PR work to do. Screw the hippies. They need him more than he needs them. And he has a pretty good plan for his employees. This was from an article:
"Whole Foods pays 100 percent of the premiums, but not the deductibles, for all employees who work 30 hours or more per week, or about 89 percent of its workers, and gives each employee $1,800 per year in "health-care dollars" that can be used for health and wellness expenses, according to the article."

Channel? And it's "douche" idiot. Why would I go to a trailer park and shoot a family? I don't live in a trailer. This is typical left wing dialogue...from the "touchy feely" crowd no less. You people are a joke.
The ONLY reason you want free health care is so you can spend all day unbathed protesting something and not getting a job to pay for your health care. You are worthless.

The system that he is supporting that has left 46 million Americans without health insurance, and the rest that do have insurance, but are paying way too much for too little. Read a book about reality once in a while please.

46 million Americans? HAHAHAHA. Where did you get that figure? Obama's press secretary? How many of those 46 million are illegal? How many are college pukes like you who don't feel the need to carry it because they are young and healthy? How many are without it for a mere few weeks or months because they lost a job and don't have it until they get a new one? Stop talking so much crap. You just look silly.

Uh try the U.S. Census Bureau., August 2008. I will say it again, please read a book about reality once in a while, your gut is not a source of knowledge you flannel wearing, sheep banging, white supremicist, honky. Healthy people get sick to, and then become a burden on our medicare system.

The Census Bureau. And I suppose the Census Bureau captures the illegals, and briefly out of work people, as well as college pukes like yourself who don't know the difference between your "to, two and too's" yet seem to know every thing else. You are full of crap. And so is NObama. Socialized medicine has never worked in ANY country. Go read up on that. You one of those Canadian homeys?
RavensFan2812 2 years ago
No they don't "capture" the illegals, here you go assuming things into reality again. I think Obama is just as bad as you so don't try and play that party line bull. For Profit has never worked in any country, single payer works great. Now I'm Canadian? I wonder what other type of portrait you'll draw up next.
