CEO's getting on they best bull-sh1t ; I could understand business wise but this feel like it's done off butt-hurt reasoning
The first crop of employers has begun to punish their workers in response to President Obama’s re-election last Tuesday. Sour grapes are the new “it” topping for one international pizza chain, as they plan on punishing employees for the result of the presidential election.
Papa Johns’ CEO John Schnatter made remarks to a small group at Edison State College's Collier County campus last Wednesday, the day after the election, that his employees might in fact face reduced work hours because President Obama defeated Mitt Romney in his bid to be re-elected.
Schnatter is doing this; because instead of see his profits dip a modicum, would rather penalize his employees and sacrifice their well-being. He of course is perfectly within his right to do so, but when he remarks about his care for their health and welfare…can he be believed?
Papa Johns has over 4000 stores across the globe. and in 2010 Papa Johns enjoyed a revenue of 1.1 billion dollars. So, we can obviously see why it would be financially cumbersome to offer healthcare to their hardworking employees.

Under the Affordable Care Act it is mandated that any employee working more than 30 hours per week be covered by their employer’s health plan. By cutting workers’ Schnatter is avoiding the burdensome task of carrying them on his group health plan.
Earlier in the summer Schnatter told shareholders that me would need to increase the cost of his pizzas 11 to 14 cents to cover the cost of 'Obamacare.' But this quick change to now slashing hours to avoid covering healthcare, reeks of nothing more than a political stunt.
Schnatter is not the first CEO to intimidate employees over the re-election of the President. The Wednesday after Election Day, Robert E. Murray, CEO of Murray Energy read a prayer laced with anti-Obama rhetoric to employees and then announced that there would be layoffs.
Murray, earlier in the summer had been accused of forcing his company’s coal miners to attend a Mitt Romney rally, and blamed Obama’s “war on coal” for the more than 150 employees who were fired.
The old saying that it is “good to be the king” rings true in these situations. CEOs are using their cushy leather chairs as bully pulpits to send political messages, at the expense of those who keep them in those cushy leather chairs.
