freaks

I happen to be fairly a libertarian myself who lives in florida. John Mackey claims to be a libertarian but really is a statist who runs a goverment monopoly who actually blocked trader joes from opening up in the state of florida. I urge all libertarians to protest because what John Mackey is doing with his corporation is not represenative of the the free market. The purpose of the free market is not to block competition but encourage it's function.

[hoppinglark]

Wasn't there a BUYcott in response?

[caltrop69]

Isn't a "right-wing Libertarian" an oxymoron?

[mctarmac10]

Count em five hippies? What a joke.

"I dont even mind driving conservatives to shop here"

lol.. these people.

[gospideygo2]

People are so stupid.. this boycott makes absolutely NO sense. Did they actually READ what Mackey wrote?

[disinfectingwipes1]

sounds like acorn workers to me

obama gave acorn over 2 BILLION dollars from the stimulus package, who do you think these people work for?

The people in this country that voted obama in will get what they deserve ,Let the truth be known.

The government option is bad for the voters. If you think healthcare costs too much now, wait tell is is free! The takers will keep coming to the trough and the producers will continue to be fleeced.

[TheonlyROXDOG]

Every person featured in this silly little video is a joke. The guy with the Pirates hat at the end is the biggest goon of them all.

Did anyone actually read the WSJ article? Pirate hat guy thinks simply "taking to the pages of the Wall Street Journal" is bad in and of itself. Note he makes no attempt whatsoever to address anything asserted by Mackey. He simply wants govt single payer and Mackey is a "right wing libertarian" for not drinking the Obama single payer Kool aid.

Pathetic.

[TheonlyROXDOG]

Is this a joke?

"The reality is, that's not true."

Then it ends. No attempt is made to backup his assertion.

This "boycott" relies solely on rhetoric.

[empirion13]

Let's recap:

1 - Union goon who can't even make a point without "uh", using "uh, uh, uh's" (who does that remind you of)

1 - Super emo whisperer whose argument basically devolves into "he's a libertarian. boycott him."

1 - Crazy (possibly cat) Lady who has psychic healing and flies to South America to meet with faith healers

....and I really couldn't make it much further than that. Is this representative of the boycotters? If so, that's pathetic.

[toeknee31]

Wow! I always felt guilty when shopping at whole foods because I equated the smelly hairy women in there with it being a hippie, tree hugging grocery store. Come to find out the CEO duped you liberal idiots into paying twice as much for vegetables because they were "earth" friendly makes me want to spend more money there. Brilliant strategy!!

[c20995]

Teens, kids and adults are getting blown away on the streets everyday in the nation by drug dealer, and gang bangers. Where are the protestors, where are boycotters? Don't tell me you liberals care about the poor and underinsured. I have never seen a protest march on a drug house, or a gang house. Or against adults who have way more kids than they can or care to take care of. Never a march against a prison or jail to show the killers, robbers, etc. how much we hate what they do to our country.

[libertarian1951]

What a great comment. I agree and could not have said it better.

[corncat]

Why are you boycott-y people so afraid of free speech?

[sreed16]

You socialist protesting Whole Foods are frankly immature "useful idiots" ... Advice: Grow up.

[shadowcaster111]

This is a joke right ?

Everyone I know who works at Whole Foods loves working there.

Liberalism = National Socialist

and we all know who the national socialist were.

[ctonyp]

Whenever a conservative says 'Freedom', what they really means is Freidman's style of 'Freedom' aka Freedom to let greed kill people to maximize profit.

[meserostalking]

And the liberal's definition of "freedom" is "freedom to allow the government to control your life instead of corporations."

Greed existed before capitalism, and will never go away. If you shift the power center from one area to another, you don't change a thing, and, in fact, can easily make it worse. Private corporations do not control the military.

[Starfire5291]

ok. i consider myself more on the liberal side, but this is ridiculous. I mean, really. You would think with all the termoil going on in the US right now, one would think that there would be something better to boycott than a grocery store. Just because he has a different opinion, does not mean he is a bad person. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I am sensing some bigger problems in the world than this. Good job putting your rebelious energy where it counts! not.

[ICONICFREEDOM]

Once again proves: IF LIBERAL MEANS MAXIMIZING FREEDOM THEN...

LIBERALS ARE ANYTHING BUT LIBERAL

controlling, manipulative, victims who are undeveloped within the species!

[remyworldpeace]

This is amazing - keep it up!!

[runned]

The most retarded protest ever, period. Liberal's win!!!!!!!! Come claim your award.

Not only are you protesting against what is nothing more than one man's opinion on healthcare your going to boycott an American company that hire's 50,000 employee's most of which are probably liberals.

Question which hurt you more? The fact that someone questioned the Kool Aid program? Or the fact that he spoke about if people would live a healthier lifestyle that would have less health issues?

[myrtlrocker06]

all these people are crazy.,,., IN AMERICA YOU ARE INTITLED TO YOUR OWN OPINION ATTACKING A BUISNESS THAT HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING BUT GIVE OTHER IDEAS DOES NOT NEED TO BE BOYCOTTED ,,, U PEOPLE NEED TO USE YOUR BRAIN

[corncat]

This, of course, has nothing to do with Whole Foods not being a union shop, of course.

[corncat]

Wow.. back when I was a kid, liberals believed in free speech. Now, if someone dares to disagree, lots of liberals and lefties try to financially attack them,, their company, all of their employees... wow.

Why so scared of new ideas?

[Yankhadenough]

corncat Mackey is using propaganda to squash human rights of all. A CEO says it so it must be so, and noone is allowed to refute him or boycott his for-profit products. Wow , I am afraid of your ideas!

[twmmcguire]

There are people dieing every day on the US roads. Who is protesting that? Russell Mokhiber is an idiot!

[WookieFragger]

I agree! People should stop dying! Nobody was protesting it before, but I say that just means the time is now ripe for a revolution. Everybody join hands with me and BAN DEATH.

[kenwheeler2]

Obamorons hate it when you dislike the dear leaders marxist programs.

[StopThemNow08]

Once again, cry babby Obama sends out his brain dead union thugs to stop people from having an opion. UFCW, what a joke, always raising there union dues but your wages stay about the same. I'm going to start shopping at NON union supermarkets. In fact I will make sure not to use another union shop as long as they (union's) support DUMD ASSES.

[shananagans5]

Wow I may go to whole foods now.
