Comcast employees get time off to protest Trump's
Posted: Feb 2, 2017
TRENTON -- President Donald Trump's executive order temporarily restricting travel from seven majority-Muslim countries prompted Comcast to give its employees paid time off to protest.
Trump's order sparked protests around the country and elicited rebukes from a handful of CEOs of companies that employ tens of thousands of U.S. workers, including Bill Ford, CEO of Ford Motor Company, who took to the airwaves to say the ban "goes against our values as a company."
Comcast, one of the nation's largest telecommunications and media conglomerates, went a step further by giving employees the opportunity to protest.

So this is where my money is going. The article says they - get paid time off.

It's great to see one of the corporations that owe their existence to a fundamental aspect of our nation - capitalism - supporting and encouraging its employees in exercising their most important right, as set out in the First Amendment!
I never thought I'd write such a thing as this, but Kudos to Comcast for showing how to be a good corporate citizen!
This equals money to a political party. I thought the left - hates that? Comcast owns NBC and

Big Jump Seen In Health Costs For Employees Oct 14, 2009As companies begin unveiling their workplace benefits for next year, many employees are learning they will have to dig even deeper into their pockets for health coverage.
Such price increases have become a fact of life during open-enrollment season, when workers sign up for their health plans. But the jump is expected to be steeper in 2010 than this year, as employers struggle with the impact of the recession and continually rising insurance costs.

Sad News For My County-another 130 Employees Laid OffNov 06, 2012The last garment factory that survived for 112 years is now gone. They just couldn't hang on any longer.

Some of the workers were employed there for 40 years and that's all they knew. The only opportunities they have now is Wal-Mart or picking orders in big box warehouse jobs 20 miles away or whatever is left in the closest ci ...
