Wow, and "Joe" expects me to feel wonderful shopping at his stores, looking at his workers and knowing that they're probably in a panic about their financial situation now that he's ripped out some of their healthcare security. He expects us to go along with this, and still shop at Trader Joes.

Over the last year our dining-out routine has been drastically changed so that we can abandon those employers who abandon their workers. Plus, I don't like to be fooled I can't wait not to shop at Traitor Joes...
