US Consumer News: Half-Assed CEO In News At Whole Foods.

HUFFINGTON POST.

In a recent WSJournal Op-Ed piece, outspoken Whole Food's CEO John Mackey once again has put a proverbial stinky foot in his mouth, opining in a libertarian vein about the problems he sees with what he calls "ObamaCare."

A backlash immediately began on the Daily Kos web site and has spread to Whole Foods'own online forum.

Whole Foods, a world-wide grocery chain, based here in ultra liberal Austin, Texas, prides itself on its organic--and expensive--offerings.
