I agree with Patrick, Corporate America needs to wake up! There are millions of American workers who are ready willing and able to work and no one would stop buying a candybar if you raised the price by $.25 if it meant keeping American workers on the job! Hershey’s, like other companies fails to realize that the backlash from this move will hurt them more then help. I am joining Patrick on this one and will no longer buy any Hershey’s products! If more people boycott them, perhaps, other companies will start to get the message.

Companies will realize they are hurting America by sending jobs out of the country when Americans can no longer afford to buy their product. Without revenue their will be no profits and soon no executive bonus.

I absolutely love Reese’s peanut butter cups, there is nothing better. But after seeing the news about Hershey’s moving out of the country, I will not buy anymore Hershey’s products. Companies need to start realizing that shipping the work out of the country is hurting America.

And I always thought Hershey’s did a damn fine job of chocolate.
