On 18 February 2016, the Facebook page I Acknowledge Class Warfare Exists posted a meme featuring a photograph of Papa John's CEO John Schnatter along with a quote ostensibly uttered by him about not sharing company profits with employees: Although several web sites, such as AZ Quotes, Sherman's Wilderness, and the Straight Dope message board, have attributed this phrase to Schnatter, none of these web sites conclusively documents where or when Schnatter purportedly made this statement. In fact, our attempt to source this quote led us through a never-ending circle of memes; in the end, we found no record in any credible publication linking Schnatter to these words. The quote was likely created in an attempt to paraphrase comments the Papa John's CEO made in 2012, just before the implementation of the Affordable Care Act: In November 2012, Schnatter wrote an op-ed piece for the Huffington Post, maintaining that some of his comments had been taken out of context.
