Most of them are made by first quality paper products. They handle most of the private label diapers. We do work at the plant in Anderson, SC and there is a finishing plant here in Macon, GA. I know they handle, the Dollar General Lines and a couple of the Grocery store lines as well.

I'm pretty sure I saw a facebook article on how an amazing new company is changing the way millennials buy kleenex... and an incredible home delivery service that's changing the game when it comes to toilet paper... or some shite like that... facebook is dumb

Blame the LBGT community, not the millennials. The millenials have been brainwashed to think that man on man is acceptible. We all know that woman on woman is perfectly fine. If there is no man on woman, no kids produced.

Maybe not the Depends, but I've heard my wife mention the younger women on the interwebz talking about some...I don't know what it's called and I'm afraid to google it...but it's basically a reusable cup/tube or some similar contraption instead of tampons.

They said it's one of the reasons they have to cut costs mate. Perfectly reasonable statement for a consumer staples company.

It's really not that emotional of a topic. This is a company that produces toilet paper and diapers that is trying to explain its current operating environment, not make social commentary and trigger snowflakes on the internet.

Good, the world is over-populated. 55000 less jobs wont matter if we cut down on the people who would work those jobs

This. My wife and I do very well and have two kids. I really am not sure how we can afford a third kid.

Yeah, that's bullshite. It doesn't cost a penny more (inflation adjusted) than it did in the 90's or 2000's.

In fact, it's a hell of a lot cheaper now than it was in general when two recessions and rampant unemployment strained family wages.
