The only consolation is that just about all of the workers very likely voted for what they are getting right now.

It's just too bad that the rest of us are being dragged down with them.

Trump’s plans were obvious to anyone with a pair of eyes, a pair of ears and a (semi) functional brain. If this community voted overwhelmingly for Trump, then they got exactly what they voted for.

Why should I care about stupid people who fuck around then find out how foolish their choices were?

The best part is that Tyson is a huge corporation and could conceivably absorb some loses. After all, Tyson executives probably supported Trump so they knew what he was going to do. Those executives aren’t as stupid as the local yokels. Importantly, those executives clearly don’t care a whit about the people they employ so why should I?

It might be the “season of forgiveness” but I’m not the least bit sympathetic.

It’s time some Americans start to learn that their choices have consequences.
