Acorn Industries planning to Layoff hundreds

Hello Everyone,
 Buck here reporting on a breaking news story that centers around Acorn Industries.  It seems that Chipmunk E. Moneybags, CEO of Acorn Industries has announced huge layoffs for his prime company Acorn Shipping.  When asked about the decision to cut 15% of his employees (totaling in 550 layoffs) he refused to comment.

Critics are outraged and the latest numbers show that Acorn Shipping has seen a rise in profits over the past six months.  The Shipping company alone is worth over $1.5 million.  Acorn Industries as a whole is the most profitable company in the country of New Pennsyork, raking in over $532 Billion annually.

The citizens of Animal-ville are outraged by the Chipmunks decision, and many employees are in fear of losing their jobs come January 1st.  One employee commented
     "Working here [at Acorn Shipping] is the only way I can put food on the table, I got 5 pups still depending on me to bring them food."

This recent layoff is expected to cause a spike of un-employment rates in the city.  According to our financial department "The rates, Although typically low, only around 2.4% this could cause a rise up to 2.7% in January.  The last time we saw a jump that large was following the tax heights of former mayor, Chuck McWood.  That happened over 5 years ago, and didn't see a reverse until Harriman Bunny took over."

The experts are worried that this spike in the un-employment could lead to panic in the market place.  However only time will tell.
