[QUOTE="texan, post: 1053042, member: 38206"] [B]Vegas Employer: Obama Won, So I Fired 22 Employees LAS VEGAS (CBS Las Vegas) — A Las Vegas buisness owner with 114 employees fired 22 workers today, apparently as a direct result of President Obama’s re-election. David” (he asked to remain anonymous for obvious reasons) told Host Kevin Wall on 100.5 XNT that “elections have consequences” and that “at the end of the day, I need to survive.” “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. Well unfortunately, and most of my employees are Hispanic — I’m not gonna go into what kind of company I have, but I have mostly Hispanic employees — well unfortunately we know what happened and I can’t wait around anymore, I have to be proactive. I had to lay off 22 people today to make sure that my business is gonna thrive and I’m gonna be around for years to come. I have to build up that nest egg now for the taxes and regulations that are coming my way. I’m just one guy with 114 employees — well was 114 employees — watch what happens in the next six months. The Dow alone lost 314 points today. There’s a tsunami coming and if you didn’t think this election had consequences, just wait.” Vegas Employer: Obama Won, So I Fired 22 Employees CBS Las Vegas [/I][/B] [/QUOTE]
