    If it was Papa Murphy's I'd be concerned.

    No no no. The Dems on this board have repeatedly ensured us that costs of healthcare will go down with Obamacare and that IF, by some crazy chance, healthcare costs go up, they won't be passed on to consumers.

    Clearly another example of a greedy one-percenter offloading his civic financial responsibility on us common folk. Then he has to rub it in our faces by making half-court shots on TV, and also showing off his John Elway-esque arm.

    I don't get Papa Murphy's. I only had it once, and it still tastes like your average frozen pizza, and it's the same price, if not more expensive. Big pizza chains and local pizzerias have giant pizza ovens that cook their pizzas way better than anyone's home oven can.

    I think what they try to sell is freshness and hot pizza at home. Frozen pizzas are full of all kinds of chemicals that can't be good for you. I prefer pizzarias, but often the pizza is not hot by the time you get home and eat.


    Papa Murphy's (and the like) serves a particualr niche in the pizza market. I opt for them every now and then

    That and the one little pepper they give you are the only reasons why I like their pizza.

    I guess I'm that one guy who actually like the stuff.

    If a company must increase its prices in order to adequately insure its employees, that proves that it wasn't doing so previously. Their now paying their fair share will lower the insurance risk, cost, and product prices of companies which already have been responsible, but have had to overpay for health insurance.

    It's all in the marketing.

    When you get the pizza home you peel back the cheese and toppings then sprinkle your good green bud shake on the crust and tomato paste. Place the cheese and toppings back on top of the KGB, sauce and crust then bake in oven.

    Enjoy!

    If Michelle had her way, pizza would be banned, altogether.

    Unless the feds make & sell it. Now, like Obamacare, we can be made to purchase it.

    For the price, the pizza is actually pretty good. A lot better than Dominos and greasy Pizza Hut. But they give out a lot of pizzas too through their online point system.

    John Schnatter is a rightwing racist extremist who is spouting un-supportable nonsense to help his rightwing racist extremist buddy Mitt distract the voters from the real issue which is Mitt has not paid any income taxes for nearly ten years.

    In addition to tasting like cardboard, his pizzas have killed more Americans than Al Qaeda.
