And they wonder why some people hate corporations.
It always comes down to greed and power, always has and always will, it’s part of human nature. Someone always wants to own and control all the frogs in the pond.
I have never really been a fan of most Disney products since Walt died but now that the new generation has implemented this outrageous, despicable act of callousness, I will never visit their parks or purchase any of their products ever again. I realize that I cannot hurt them, but I do not have to help these cockroaches.
Here’s a related story about the ‘Information Technology’ workforce(which I was a senior member of until, after ~30 years, when we got out when the getting was good) and how the H1B’s have wiped out American Computer/Network/Software Technical Support. You still get the accent and the fake name, but now they’re not in Mumbai or elsewhere offshore.

And another follow up story about Rubio that Levin read on his show last night:
http://www.nationalreview.com/article/431799/marco-rubio-immigration
Rubio is a snake, and Levin called him out on this. By the way, you will NOT read about this on any other website.
