Shocked ? Nope. The guy that owned one of the largest chains of Pizza Huts in Louisiana & Mississippi failed to pay into health insurance and pension funds for years. He got in trouble in 2007 because he had not paid sales tax to either the state or the parish, that led to an investigation into pension funds, which progressed all the way to the IRS getting involved. He declared bankruptcy immediately and hundred of workers were left with zilch! And he lives in his quiet water-front home in relative peace.
