Here's my problem --- The CEOs and Presidents of these companies live in Muli-Million Dollar Houses. They are firing people because it'll take them another month to get that nice and shiny car, or that 5th house for that 2nd cousin.
To sit here and say "Well, they need to cut costs!!!" is bullshit!
Interesting. You say that as if you actually KNOW that.

News freakin' Flash --- I grew up, and spent most on my life on Long Island with a stint in London. I spent my whole life around these people. Hell, I AM one of these people. Don't sit here and act like you know how this works. I've seen both sides of the coin. I've been with the filthy rich, and I've been with those less fortunate, so I know how both sides live.
For all you know I may actually know exactly how "this works".

You may guess, you may assume. BUT you know no such thing. You're merely projecting my dear.

Firing people for voting for Obama? Not only morally wrong, but I'm fairly certain it's illegal.
One could argue the case that firing due to Obama being reelected is but anecdotal to the continued economic policies and downward trend being exhibited.

A Hiring Freeze? Both stupid and illogical.
Hardly. If such is always stupid and illogical then what of government? It's done so on numerous occasions. 
quote:
I am going to be counting the days until they'll have to back down from that simply because they aren't willing to give hours to employees, but they aren't willing to hire new people? I may use Vagina Logic but that seems pretty counter productive to me when people are quitting left and right because they are getting their hours cut!
This is the CEO of a huge company like that throwing a tantrum because he doesn't want to pay the same rates as the rest of society.
Vagina Logic? Cute I like that. Best you stay right there
As Kana's picture so bluntly pointed out -- The CEO of Papa Johns lives in a CASTLE with a 22 car garage, private golf course and late... but he's cutting back in employee's hours because he can't "afford" an additional 11-14 cents per pizza. He could raise the price by 25 cents a pizza, and most customers wouldn't even blink AND he'd make a profit. He'd rather cut hours and screw over people who are working hard and voted FOR Obama BECAUSE of people like him.
Doesn't make it any less wrong, and possibly illegal.
Yes. It's done if people no longer need positions filled. When you're cutting hours, AND refusing to take on new people, you're going to have to cut actual business hours, and eventually close down all together. People are going to leave with their hours getting cut, and with the company no longer hiring, you're going to have less and less people working, and no new bodies to take their place.
You seriously think that's not stupid and illogical? Where I come from is where sky is really purple but it only looks blue because of the sun reflecting off of the water molecules in the air. Where you're from, it's purple but it only looks blue from that wealthy CEO ball sweat you seem to take pleasure in licking up.
It's astounding how many people are so willing to turn a blind eye to logic so they can remain ever faithful to a party when common sense dictates that something doesn't add up.
