I think Sith expected Obama to be a socialist and control prices. He believed this because Fox "News' told him it was so. Now, when the liez spread by the neo-religi-cons turn out to be false it is Obama's fault.

But Obama has been hoarding all the food so he's to blame for higher food prices!

Holy crap, some people actually blame Obama for that stuff?

If anything, Republicans should be happy with Obama. Tax cuts, extended bush tax cuts, payroll tax cut, meeting more than halfway (like with the debt issues), etc.

Is this a raise you haven't gotten yet? If so, then I understand. If not, are they going to retroactively take away your raise?



I think he's saying that nobody will be getting raises this year because of the increase in their cost from the distributor.

Of course the restaurant is just going to raise prices on their food to make up for it, but he thinks the boss will axe raises instead of increasing prices enough to cover them too.

If Barry wins re-election, you're gonna see radical shift to the left. Just like he tried to do in his first year, before america said "f**k that!" and he started to govern from the mid/left.


You should all fear a lame duck Ubama.


Mark my words.

I was being sarcastic but yes our raises are effected by food costs. The magic percentage we want to stay under is 30% food cost this is factored using a probable use versus actual use formula. So who gets screwed in this deal the workers or the customers.

You can guess what corporate is going to do?
