Why I'm boycotting Colgate

The Colgate-Palmolive Co. factory in Clarksville, Indiana wants to have operations in a so-called “right-to-work” state.

Colgate has announced that it will close the 475-employee factory by January 2008 to “increase efficiency and competitiveness.”

“Gov. Mitch Daniels blames state’s lack of ‘right to work’ law for departure.” That is the headline of an article that appeared in the Gary Post Tribune this morning.

Right to work, my foot! Colgate-Palmolive Co. wants cheapy labor…….plain and simple, and this quote by anti-union Governor, Mitch Daniels, is nothing less than his way of saying that he wishes Indiana would become a Right to work (for less) state.
