What it all comes down to is very simple... liberals want to take credit for giving people healthcare but refuse to take credit for what it takes and what it costs to make it happen.
Take credit for anything you see as good. Villainize and blame somebody else for the bad. liberalism 101. |

Another question: How many here that thing "14 fuking cents" is not a big deal have had to make payroll? Ever lost sleep thinking about that not so little problem? I have. It drastically changes your view of business. Sure the owner of Papa John's is rich now, but you never lose track of how fast expenses can get away from you. "14 fuking cents" turns into millions quicker than you can imagine. |

My comment, and my ONLY comment was it seems kinda petty over .14 cents. Maybe you could refrain from tossing me in your so called group of experts? Thanks. |

Type Public (NASDAQ: PZZA) Net income US $51.940 million (2010) It's only 10-15% of the net income of the company. No big deal at all, right? F*ck it. He's rich. Are you really so completely oblivious and simple minded that you think it is only "14 fuking cents"?? :skep: |

I'd suggest that those who don't like his business policy not buy his pizza.

That's assuming sales doesn't drop. But then again I'm sure his company does a ton of research that sets the price for their pizzas. I suspect they've done their homework and established they won't be able to raise the price of their pizza by 14 cents without feeling the effects. So, it's only 14 cents per current sales numbers, but that number rises as sales drops. Or are you suggesting you think it's fair to take that out of the pocket of the company owner? This health care law is absolute bullshit, and is putting many of our business owners in tight situations. To compound that, liberals much like yourself are attempting to ridicule companies for reacting differently to the bill than you'd like. Lets face it, it's a free market, he's done the math and decided he can't raise the price of the pizza, and can simply restructure his employment to adapt to the bill in the most profitable manner. Don't like it? Blame the bill, not the business reacting to the law. |

So I guess the answer is yes. You actually are simple minded enough to think that you can dumb down complex economics to the level of crayons and construction paper. I have a very simple question. Seeing as it is a reasonable statement to say that Papa John's was already doing everything possible to maximize profit, why were they not already charging $.14 more? You don't just raise prices $.14 and multiply it out. Despite your best efforts to use kindergarten math, it is not that simple. The complexities of marketing and sales are far and above what you seem to make of them. When you raise the price, you lose market share. It is the most basic marketing principle possible. How is it possible for someone in sales not to comprehend that? :skep: By your way of thinking, they could raise the prices another $.50 and make an easy $20 million more profit. Too bad they didn't have someone as smart as you letting them know it was that easy. |

I have never been, and never will be against Corporate business for the way they choose to make money, or how much they want to keep. I've said this before. My point I was trying to make was there was a better way to handle this and it was internally. PJ chose to come out and publicly say what their plan was. Either to show their lack of support for the current administration, or to prove a point. This can very easily backfire on them as PR is not always good for business. Especially in such a politically strong mindset like in the US. |

I still think it should have been handled internally. |
Still crappy pizza, IMO. :D
