EvilMongrelMonkey ::: Favorites Why can I not chose who I want to hire? Goddamn socialists!!! 07-04-25 05:42:39 _____________________________________________________ | |
Meatpieandtatters ::: Favorites Because if the ALF-CIO had their say, every member would be paid 25.00 and hour, would only have to actually work 5 hours a day (with a break every 15 minutes) plus be given a annual pension equal to 1.5 times their working pay. Self-employed don't get this socialist treatment...only the union twits do. It's an alternative reality sucking off other's to advance their own cause. 07-04-25 11:51:03 _____________________________________________________ | |

atypicalguy ::: Favorites If you're talking about small business owners, it shouldn't matter. But if you're talking about large conglomorates like GE and Walmart, who employ a large percentage of the work force, then it's very necessary. If they can be legally considered 'persons' then they should be held to a higher legal standard. 07-04-25 08:37:56 _____________________________________________________ | |
EvilMongrelMonkey ::: Favorites Why should it make a difference... are you saying that it's ok to discriminate as long as the person you discriminate against is rich? Isn't that class envy? 07-04-25 11:56:26 _____________________________________________________ | |
atypicalguy ::: Favorites But it's not a person. It's a group of people who control a large chunk of the wealth and capital and who have power over the lives of thousands, sometimes millions of people. Should they, in a completely undemocratic fashion, have the power to decide who gets to work and who doesn't? 07-04-27 17:54:00 _____________________________________________________ | |
