Medtronic

In March of 2010, medical device maker Medtronic warned that Obamacare taxes could result in a reduction of precisely 1,000 jobs. That plan became reality when the company cut 500 positions over the summer, with another 500 set for the end of 2013.

So much made up ****. So many foolish RWers that believe it.
Medtronic made no statement about Obamacare. To claim they did is an outright lie.

Quote:
Medtronic announced in May it would be cutting some 1,000 jobs, as the controversy surrounding its Infuse Bone Graft product continues to weigh on the medical device maker’s bottom line.

"We are eliminating about 1,000 positions around the company and around the globe," Gary Ellis, the company's chief financial officer, told the Minneapolis Star Tribune at the time. "It's kind of the normal, ongoing thing that goes forward as we shift resources from slower-growing markets to faster-growing markets."

Despite the immediate layoffs, Medtronic is eyeing a net staffing increase, saying in May that it will add 1,500 jobs around the globe in 2013 fiscal year, focusing largely on emerging markets



Damn.. just when Obamacare kicks in with the tax on medical devices in 2013 Medtronic ADDS jobs.

@parados,
That's what happens when the likes of McG tries to interpret media information; they get it all twisted into a pretzel. Mr. Green

@mysteryman,
You have this knee jerk reaction that makes you defend the most vile people, MM.

That was the tiniest of his myriad crimes. But you don't want to talk about those, do you? Despite a pretense that you do.

@izzythepush,
Yea, and the Supreme Court stepped in on that election, but ignored all the voter suppression laws established by the GOP in this election. They're a bunch of wuss, and there should be something in the Constitution about "conflict of interest." They should all be ashamed of themselves for weakening our Constitution - which they swore to protect.

@hawkeye10,
Again with this stupidity, Hawk. Y'all sure can think up the most inane memes to seize upon when you are faced with the horrendous crimes of the US; terrorism by the US that makes all other terrorist actions put together pale into insignificance.

Pointing out others crimes doesn't absolve one from their own.

And the nationality of those who point those crimes out is of no importance whatsoever.

Americans thrill to the opportunity of pointing out others crimes. That's an essential part of the propaganda stream. And here, all the time, y'all are the worst of the worst.

Hypocrisy much? Immorality much? Evil much? Perfidious much?

Not really; he's already expose his hypocrisy when he started posting his myopic message from the very beginning - ad nauseum. Most of us sane people have put him on Ignore; knowing we aren't missing anything.

i am morally opposed to the ignore function, and have a deep aversion to giving up on people, so that does not work for me.

@realjohnboy,
Not to be offensive, but next time, how about we just agree to not count Florida votes. It'll save at least a week every year.

@roger,
Naw, I like the idea that Romney was a non-contestant in this election.

But, betcha, conservatives are going to complain that Obama won by a "small margin" and not legit.

Boner still doesn't get the message; he still believes the GOP has power.

@snood,
A "squeaker" all right; Obama won 62% of the electoral votes. When was the last time that happened?
