Nope. She has nothing to do with that company. Did you read Publix's statement?

She is a stockholder.
Publix is employee owned and treat their employees well.

You'd just bring down the value of the employee holdings and not bother that awful woman and her awful children at all. They'd probably smirk at the cluelessness.

Mr.Jenkins actually started at Piggly Wiggly.
The problem I have with Publix now is even though Julia is not involved with the day to day operations of the company she does own a lot of it's stock. Publix pays about 20 cents a share in dividends every three months.. Now I can't fine how many shares she owns, but I would imagine it's a lot. Plus Publix also gave 100,000 dollars to friends of Desantis PAC. Publix will get about 45 dollars a shot and some of that money will end up in Julia's pocket. IMHO something stinks here.
