Merck Posts NJ WARN Act Notice For Next Lafayette Layoffs


Again, our sincere thanks go to this anonymous commenter -- here's the relevant July 2010 New Jersey Department of Labor page:


. . . .Merck & Co. | Lafayette | Effective September 27, 2010 | 90 Workers. . . .

Truly unfortunate -- and likely unecessary, had Fred Hassan done the job he promised he'd do.

on a separate issue, you have in the past posted about the new Health Care law.

Did you see this:"Missouri voters Tuesday rejected the new U.S. healthcare bill, approving a measure that would forbid the federal government from penalizing people who do not buy health insurance."

And then combine it with this;
An alarming new report shows obesity rates are still rising across the country. It also reveals that nine states now have obesity rates over 30 percent: Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee and West Virginia.

What do those states have in common? They are all either Souuthern or mountainous (the Ozarks and Appalachia). They are among the poorest and least educated states in the nation.

makes for some interesting commentary, no?
