Two unions have now joined in the growing chorus decrying Whole Foods' CEO John Mackey and suggesting a boycott of the store. Two weeks ago, Mackey penned a controversial op-ed in the Wall Street Journal offering the "Whole Foods alternative to ObamaCare."

"The last thing our country needs is a massive new health care entitlement that will create hundreds of billions of dollars of new unfunded deficits and move us much closer to a government takeover of our health care system," Mackey wrote, then suggested a neat solution. (Hint: this alternative involves grocery shopping at Whole Foods.)

1. Good..because john mackey is a fucking liar and I want

to know why the health food hasn't helped him?

I believe in eating healthy food ..I just don't believe in shopping at whole foods where john mackey is the ceo.

2. I would love to see the UFCW organize his stores

for all he charges, you'd think he would have no trouble paying union wages and benefits
