Come on Wretchard, Whole Foods CEO John Mackey just needs to see the light of 0bamaCare. He is in Nancy Pelosi’s back yard. The change would be staggering.

First, Whole Foods needs to be Unionized by the United Food & Commercial Workers (UFCW) union with the proposed “card check” system. This would insure higher labor costs and lower quality – but, new voters for 0bama, Pelosi and gang.

Then, under UFCW Union those fine Whole Food employees could get ObamaCare! This would further increase the cost of doing business and may even turn Income Statement from Black to Red.

Next, the Union workers could be bused to various states where “ObamaCare Meetings” are going poorly – or any “Town Hall” meeting where some muscle could be used to keep those Tea Baggers in line.

With a little payola to 0bama and gang, the Wild Oats brand and the 13 stores that Whole Food lost in the FTC Anti-trust suit could be brought back into the fold… Unionized of course.

By this Point John Mackey will either have his head bashed in or hired a good security team. The Grocery Unions can be very brutal at times. I have seen it.

Now, for 0bama the unionization of Whole Foods would provide a larger and more powerful base. What could possible go wrong?

[Natural Specialty Foods Memo blog]

…”One of the retail chains the UFCW wants to unionize is Whole Foods Market, Inc., which is one of the largest non-union food retailing chains in the U.S. For example, Kroger Co, Safeway Stores, Inc. and Supervalu, the top three supermarket chains in the U.S., are union, as are most of the other leading big chains. Wal-Mart, Costco, Whole Foods, target, Trader Joe’s and a few other national food retailers aren’t.”
