LAS VEGAS (CBS Las Vegas) A Las Vegas business 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 KXNT that elections have consequences and that at the end of the day, I need to survive.
Here s an excerpt from the interview. Click the audio tab below to hear even more from this compelling conversation:
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.
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. Elections do have consequences, but so do choices. A choice you make every day has consequences and you know what, I ve always put my employees first, but unfortunately today I have to put me and my family first, and you watch what s gonna happen. 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.

Caymans. Who gives a shit?

We need to find out this guy's last name so we can find out what business he owns and boycott the shit out of it.

Sure does. A cowardly douchebag, for "obvious" reasons, at that. Here's what he said in the interview:
"David (he asked to remain anonymous for obvious reasons) told Host Kevin Wall on 100.5 KXNT that elections have consequences and that at the end of the day, I need to survive.
Well unfortunately, and most of my employees are Hispanic Im not gonna go into what kind of company I have, but I have mostly Hispanic employees well unfortunately we know what happened and I cant 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 Im 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."
