Are you going to keep buying Hershey chocolates?

The Hershey company has laid off around "3300" North American workers and closed 6 plants in North America, and moved a plant to Monterrey, Mexico.

Answer this question

Russ:

And if you don't buy the chocolates, they will close more plants, and lay off more workers.

MamaV:

yup making a stand against the giants does nothing for the little guy. Great Answer russ.

Linda:

I wouldn't not buy them for the reason stated. If Americans would be less greedy and demanding they wouldn't be pricing themselves out of the labor market! On the other token they are not willing to pay for quality or American made products so they deserve what they are getting!

I'm proud to be an American, but I'm not proud of the way Americans have changed in the last couple of decades!

Jockamo:

Yes, I will. =)

Rebecca:

Just did and probably gonna do it again.

Bev:

I was in one of those factories before christmas, still have some chocolate left....it was the one in Halifax N.S. no more factory shopping I guess.

Gabby123:

yes..Most of what I own is made somewhere else anyway. To quit buying hershey stuff as a protest would be hyprocritical if I kept buying other products from other companies that have done the same thing. I wish American companies would stay here but unless changes are made, we will see more of the same.
