1. I think we should be willing to work for $2 an hour

So that we can compete with other countries.

If we would be willing to give up benefits, overtime pay requirements, government controlled safe working environs (OSHA) and more, we could be competitive.

The entire teaparty and most of the republican party are working day and night to create a completely unregulated working environment in America, they seem to know more about this than any liberal commie.





Now sure, liberal commies did create all this nonsense, safe work places, overtime, vacation pay, work comp, etc.

Liberal commies worked for and demanded collective bargaining rights, but you see these are why we are not competitive.

The typical corp is REQUIRED by corp charter to make as much profit as possible no matter who it harms, what it harms, etc.

Stop whining and get to work...


(want to fix the problem? make the existence of corps which have as their goal to maximize profits, illegal in USA)
