A true American dream. They now own the store!
What do you think Romney would have done with the 3 stores? :roll:

lol I have never met so many people that are worried about others wealth. Its a nice thing what this man done but having a partnership can be a struggle 399 would be suicidal. Then you have this "The amount of shares each employee receives will be based on length of service and salary. The program is expected to pay the Lueken family off for the sale in three to five years" seems there is more when you read the fine print?

No one gives a damn about "other's wealth" - what they do care about is that the wealthy seem to have their own seperate set of rules - one of us steals, we go to jail, one of them steals, they get a bonus. One of us cheats, we get punished, one of them cheats, they get rewarded. We earn money, we pay taxes, they invest money, they don't pay taxes. Some of us have problem with that.

That was nice of him.

Atleast they weren't already sueing him or picketing outside claiming that they owned the company just because they worked there, lol.

Who cares what Romney would have done to the stores. If you don't like what he does, go out bid him and you can save them all.
