Democrats as dictators

[ChumpDumper]

Pretty dumb of the president of the company to spout off in the first place. Looks like the market is taking care of it without the "help" of politicians.

Teysha, I apologize I'm not really up-to-date on this thread. Can you elaborate on your point in regards to franchises?

While most stores might be independent franchises, they are leasing rights to the brand, and with the brand comes anything positive or negative that the brand may do.

I'd be curious to see if any franchisees file suit against Chick-Fil-A if they see a big drop in sales (not saying such a suit has or doesn't have merit).

The franchise in this particular story employs gay workers. She's a bit pissed at Mayor Emanuel for villifying her by proxy.

[TeyshaBlue]

I'm pretty sure a franchisee contracts to, and pays for, the franchisor to keep the brand's image up.

I'm pretty sure you have no idea what you're talking about since the franchise apparently supports gay workers, in the example I posted. :facepalm.


lol @ content-free.

She has the right to be pissed, but if she didn't want to associated with all of the positives and negatives of a brand, she shouldn't have franchised under that brand.

I think any political figure is in their right to criticize the Mr. Cathy's opinions, but that is where they should stop. Any talk of restricting the access to permits is pure absurdity.

Yet politicians destroy the economy end businesses all the time by talk of taxing them more.

Not really, good try though.

Of course the filthy child-bloodsucking boutons supports oppressions. How the did Hitler miss his ancestors?

This seems pretty stupid of Menino. The only thing that pisses me off about Chick-Fil-A is that they're closed on Sundays. Damn these religious nuts and their Sabbaths! I'm an atheist and I want chicken 7 days a week!
