Sucks, doesn't it? I think Hershey's is the latest corporate turncoat. Can you imagine - Hershey's in a third world country! What a bunch of ingrates. I'd wipe their name off the map if I were the Penn. governor.
Hershey owned a plant one mile from where I live. They closed it about 14 months ago, laying off over 100 workers. The plant was here about 80 years. Most people here won't buy there products now.
Sad thing is the plant is still cosed and no prospect for any other business moving in.
I am ALL in favor of wiping thier name off the map. In the end, the stockholders are doing the same exact thing CEO's of big corporations have done. They insist on getting their money at the cost of other Americans. The CEO's are just the frontmen.

The can and bottle deposits are expanding in our state to include juice and water bottles. Many see it as another tax.
Oh..yes, well, I guess the word "tax" isn't an epithet to me so I'm not on the lookout for it! :)

I've been reading about how many taxes our state's legislators are contemplating. Nothing is safe now. We are facing a billion dollar deficit and instead of spending cuts, the lawmakers are taxing everything. 18 new fuel taxes are being considered!
I feel another civil war coming on. This time it will be the people verses the government. People can't take much more.
I hope people vote out these tax raising career politicians in our next election.

In Taiwan they charge $1-2NT (3-6 cents USD) per bag; all it does is keep the level of waste down because people don't throw away the bags, and re-use them. Even in the US, I always kept my grocery bags to find other good uses for them around the house. I don't see it as a bad idea, especially in a place like CT where the land space is low to be able to be hucking huge amounts of plastic into landfills.
