      XPost: or.politics, seattle.politics, fl.politics       XPost: rec.aviation.military, alt.law-enforcement       From: muratlanne@gmail.com              "a425couple" wrote in message news:VewSO.730702$_o_3.465897@fx17.iad...              MSNBC host left stunned after asking black and Hispanic Republicans why       they're voting Trump              --------------------------------              They don't know what to think (for themselves!) when forced to face that       their elaborate lie is falling apart.              A good example was the Market Basket incident in which the non-union       employees stood up for their billionaire CEO when he was forced out in a       family dispute. The media didn't know what to say or write when Labor       rallied to support Management, which can't happen in their world view.              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_Basket_protests       It wasn't a strike, the workers remained on the job, but their contagious       enthusiasm for Arthur T. enlisted sympathetic customers to cripple the chain       with a near total boycott.              "Customers chose not to shop at Market Basket due to the lack of product       and/or as a form of protest. Stores that usually had over 100 customers in       them at one time now had only a few. Most employees did not strike, thus the       stores remained fully staffed but employees had little or nothing to do.       Many of them joined the protesters outside or performed acts of protest       inside the store, such as writing "Boycott Market Basket" on the window,       placing signs encouraging customers to not shop there, leaving frozen dairy       products out to spoil, or refusing to stock shelves."              I've never seen the store scrubbed so clean. Frozen food and fresh produce       were scarce, non-perishables from outside vendors remained fully stocked. I       shopped there a few times to pick up what Walmart didn't have and listen to       their stories.              --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
