What are you going to do?
Are you going to help do that?
Do you want to buy it back?
Use all the money that you've got?
to buy it back so i find it very ironic that on one hand they take the check pat but then on the other hand he's criticizing capitalist system and then wants the brand back and things like this look you're not the first person that sold your company to private equity or someone and saw changes but once you've sold the new owner has it you want to protect your employees you want things to happen
But for him to come out and say, oh, I don't like this because Unilever is coming out with spinning turd swirl.
And I think that's against the values of the company.
Well, look, it's not your company anymore and you sold it.
And so I see what he's saying.
But you got to remember, if you were this altruistic, why did you cash the check way back when?
Even if you say you were against it.
We don't buy it in our house because of this.
Thank you, Wall Street Journal.
This is just a simple story that shows a downstream effect.
And it's unfortunate.
There's a lot of kids out there that want to make the extra dollars to put some in the bank and have that extra money when school starts or buy the kicks that they want versus the sneakers that their parents want to buy them.
And it's very simple.
We are in a spike of affordability driven by oil and the war.
And so parents are spending less on summer camps, less on vacations to amusement parks and theme parks.
And so all of those extra summer jobs are not there.
