Whole Foods Faces Boycott


Whole Foods CEO John Mackey (below) has ticked off some of his most loyal customers by publishing an editorial in the conservative Wall Street Journal regarding "Obamacare". In it, he states that there is no "intrinsic right to health care".


Naturally, many of the progressives who purchase Whole Foods' overpriced goods are outraged and are calling for a boycott. A Facebook GROUP has sprung up, stating...
Whole Foods is NOT a company that cares for communities and they have built their brand with the dollars of deceived progressives. No more. My $ will no longer go to support Whole Foods' anti-union, anti-health insurance reform, right-wing activities.

John Mackey, CEO and co-founder of Whole Foods wrote an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal on 8/12/2009 quoting Margaret Thatcher and suggesting that healthcare is a commodity that only the rich, like him, deserve.

I never spend a penny at Whole Foods anyway, but what do you think - will this affect whether or not you shop at Whole Foods?
