Business Owner Fires 22 Employees "Because Obama Won"
Posted by Brittany Stepniak on the Wealth Wire - Friday, November 9th, 2012
After Virginia, once again, went blue and Obama achieved another presidential victory, Lyons Jewelers in Bedford, Virginia closed shop Wednesday. The signs outside the business-door read that they were closed to “mourn the loss of the America that our forefathers endowed to us,” according to WDBJ7.
Here’s another sign that was posted at Lyons’s entrance:

Further west, a Vegas employer actually fired 22 of his 114 employees with the sole reason being that Obama won the election.
The above mentioned employer asked to remain anonymous for obvious reasons but he did interview with CBS. Here’s what he had to say for himself:
I’ve done my share of educating my employees. I never tell them which way to vote. I believe in the free system we have, I believe in the right to choose who they want to be president, but I did explain as a business owner that I have always put my employees first. I always made sure that when I went without a paycheck that [I] made sure they were paid. And I explained that I always put them first and unfortunately I’m at a point where I’m being forced to have to worry about me and my family now and a business that I built from just me to 114 employees.
I explained to them a month ago that if Obama gets in office that the regulations for Obamacare are gonna hurt our business, and I’m gonna have to make provisions to make sure I have enough money to cover the payroll taxes, the additional health care I’m gonna have to do, and I explained that to them and I said you do what you feel like in your heart you need to do, but I’m just letting you know as a warning this is things I have to think of as a business owner.
This man and other CEOs warned employees about this weeks and months ago, and it sounds like they weren’t bluffing. With taxes so high and health care costs expected to rise, many small business employers have found themselves in between a rock and a hard place.

This what you get when you work for someone else to make them rich. You are going to deal with the whims of the human being that runs the company or the manager that works for the owner. He probably fired the lefties. Now tell me its free country when you live in a right to work state.
You are correct, they should quit and start their own business. Then they can be rich. It’s easy to run your own business, right? You are a fool.
@Carlos… Amen, the above Anon has no idea what it takes to run a buisness much less a sucessful one. Im so sick of hearing people cry and complain that it is the employer’s fault that they just lost their job, and that people are being fired due to some kind of tantrum because a republican didnt get elected. No people its not the owners fault guess what it is Obummers fault and all the idiots who voted for him and his marxist belief of redistribution of wealth,
