New Don't buy Kellogg's stuff.

But this February Jackson and his co-workers at the Memphis Kellogg cereal plant face the prospect of spending Black History Month on the picket line. Three months into a lockout, the company has yet to return to the bargaining table.

During local contract negotiations in October 2013, Kellogg demanded the right to hire more part-time and casual employees, at lower pay rates. When workers voted the proposal down, Kellogg locked them out.

Scabs hired through an Ohio union-busting firm now produce Frosted Flakes and Fruit Loops.


They have lots of brands not under their name, too, of course - http://en.wikipedia...._Company#Products

I won't be buying "Bear Naked" any more...

Subject: Whole Foods CEO: Stop Spreading Lies about Obamacare

Hi,

Whole Foods' CEO, John Mackey, has been using his position as head of one of the most respected companies in America to promote anti-Obamacare lies and deter people from signing up for life-saving health insurance under the Affordable Care Act.

Fight back against this kind of confusing misinformation and tell John Mackey stop misleading Americans. Statements like these confuse people about the law and scare them away from signing up for the coverage they desperately need.

That's why I signed a petition to John Mackey, CEO.

Will you sign this petition? Click here:

Thanks!



Haven't investigated what ties Mackey may have to certifiable nutters.. enough.
Still, it's a safe presumption that his disconnect would match most of those whose 'income' (never mind accumulated spoils) is 10,000 X an average stipend.

(Am surprised to report some successes re a number of petitions (mainly wildlife related) and relating to the current Repo War on (quite more than just making wolves extinct)
--on the Endangered Species Act itself. But it's just a start, given the contrary-funding by reprobates.

The sheer number of malevolent forces, aimed at so many Targets now ... supports the thesis that Madness has permeated quite beyond the disturbing levels
seen at the start of the Shogunate.
Unclear on which side can be seen a momentum-shift; the data is so tainted by either ineptness, fundlessness or pre-paid spin.

New Can't do that . . .

Well, actually, I did buy two small packages of rice from them a few weeks ago - they were the only place I could quickly get a couple of yuppie rices I needed for my Rice page. 2014 US $7 was probably their smallest invoice of the day.
