Nice deflect on the "kill the unions" thing, which incidentally, I never said. You always put words in peoples text to try to win an argument on the internet or is it something new? The key here is following the money. The UAW and ...cough...it's monetary benefactors...cough... have helped run these companies into the ground. By not answering with anything other than a deflection means you either are willfully ignorant and a hypocrite, or just one of those people who argue for the sake of argument without much to back it up.


3. Not bull. First, you guys always throw that class envy shit around like it's a marx rally and Stalin is making the first speech. lol. No one on the right is destroying or wanting to destroy the middle class. (who was it that said the right consists of a bunch of fear mongers...really...with stuff like that going around? ). No one here hates the workers. Businesses exist for the people that run them to create wealth for themselves. period. No one starts a business to create jobs. Jobs are a by-product of business growth. Economics 101.

Unions were a great idea back in the 20's, when there were monopolies and such to deal with. Today, they are leeches and criminals stealing money without a gun. Since they donate a lot of money to not-right (get it?) politicians, they get to be the monopoly and can exert a whole bunch of strain on a company until you get things like having to pay workers 90% of their salary until retirement because you were cutting the fat and closing a plant and this prick didn't want to find a new job. Seriously though, who, but the insane or really honest would find a new job over taking 90% of his 56k a year for no work?

4. Sure, companies are cutting some fat because the non-pro-business side is in charge. People are slowing down, but you don't see issues like this in the southern car manufacturing states because of the right to work laws.

5. Finally... More class warfare rhetoric? Please. I will refer you to the first paragraph in part 3 regarding Economics 101. Simply because you enjoy suckling the government teet and hate the fact that capitalism works better than communism doesn't mean you're right. I know, I know...libs do what makes them feel good vs what is actually right.... hence the condition of public schools, but that's another story for another day.



I really decided to go out there on the anti-lib wing because socialism has failed everywhere it's been tried, everytime it's been tried. You folks need reminding of that from time to time.
