The Whole Foods Boycott

By Jeralyn

ADVERTISEMENTS

Count me out for the Whole Foods Boycott.

The CEO John Mackey wrote an op-ed opposing health care reform in the Wall St. Journal.

Whole Foods is a grocery store that apparently provides decent health insurance to its employees. The boycott, if successful, could lead to employee layoffs. What best interest does that serve?

Who cares what this guy thinks? If he was advocating a change in the law so Whole Foods could terminate their employees' coverage and institute a policy that Whole Foods workers would have to pay their own premiums or go without insurance, I could see the battle-cry.

As it is, he's just one more capitalist that doesn't think health care is a right guaranteed to all. Others can and should feel free to disagree.

I want to protect the workers, so I'm not boycotting Whole Foods over the stupid remarks of its CEO.
