Tyson announces more plant closures making it 8 total

[SomeJackleg]

More "Food" plants closing.

Crickets are coming faster and faster.

That's a lot of jobs... Real people loosing jobs with nothing to replace them... So sad. 

But I truly wonder why... Tyson is huge - are people stopping buying Tyson? I can't imagine why .. inflation is bad but have people stopped buying chicken? Makes no sense...

looks like now that the hill and biiary aren't that involved in politcing tyson is going broke. wonder if it's because they have no protection anymore.


 just a thought.

Are you talking about Tysons love of shipping in illegals to work their factories? 

I guess it could be a factor but they pay their illegals minimum wage same as the people who work for them legally, they just don't like exceeding minimum wage... 

At least that's how they did it at one point to my knowledge - so having no access to illegals wouldn't have an effect such that closing 8 plants would be necessary. 

I wonder how the plant closures are affecting the land they rent off farmers all over the place for chicken houses... Are they closing all that too? 

If so, that's a huge dent in the food supply...huge..

basically it goes back to when the hill and billary were still in Arkansas and he was attorney general. billary took a 1000 dollars and invested in cattle futures on advice from Tyson's outside lawyer through and a former Tyson Employee who started and a commodities investment company in New York City. she made almost 100,000 in less than a year. if memory serves that was more than both made in a year in 1979. in today's money that would havew been over 400,000.

after that through the years in Arkansas  Tyson got lots of tax breaks , favors, states loans,  executives from tyson got placed on state regulatory boards, and one of the biggest was a contamination of of the waste from their plants. one of which caused
contamination of the water supply by tyson's green river plant that they never were held accouintable.

some suggest that tyson bribed them, and it extend into his presidency and her time as senator and in the state department.
if you think about it, tyson didn't start having real problems until after hill and billary were out of political scene and didn't have as much influence as before.
