Demand Democrat Eric Smidt walk the Democrat talk with his own company and individuals!

    Eric Smidt is a multibillionaire Democrat CEO and founder of Harbor Freight tools. His company uses vast amounts of wasteful paper putting out excessive amounts of coupons and coupon books which are detrimental to the environment.Environmentalism is a big Democratic platform.
    Democrats allege to advocate for the working man but Mr. Smidt, instead of taking tax deductions through higher employee wages, prefers to cook the tax books by putting out excessive coupons which on the front end save customers money but on the back end cost tax payers much more because Harbor Freight and Mr. Smidt end up paying no net tax due to the coupons writeoffs. This no net tax, like many other companies such as Amazon,etc. makes billionaires out of founders and adds to the federal deficit which then becomes current and future taxpayer liability. The taxes the company should have paid create a tax burden to the public as a whole later on.While Mr.Smidt and his silver platter family bask in gluttonous wealth his employees wonder if they will be able to buy groceries,make a car payment or save pennies for retirement. Is this the Democrat ideal?
    Mr. Smidt has shifted the tariffs on China by the Trump admin on to employees by using an automated payroll scheduling program which effectively trims 4-5 hours per week off of non-salaried employees across the 1000 or so stores. Mr. Smidt is hiding the negative impact of the tariffs and the financial pain inflicted on workers already making at or near federal poverty level pay.
    Mr. Smidt gives his store employees 2 paid holidays per year, far less than even notoriously employee unfriendly retailers much larger than his company. Overall the culture of the company more resembles reputed Republican organizations than a Democratic one.
