The percent of people working for minimum wage is of course quite small, most corporations pay more than minimum wage because they are in competition with others and want good workers. The Gap of course is raising minimum pay to $10 across America, Wal Mart has said if more people had money...
Hi Leap, you said, Yeah, those sorry bastards who risk their necks, and lay it on the line, such as cable companies who pay towns to limit competition raising the cost of goods and services for everyone. This is but one example that you yourself could recite but don't ignore the fact that...
lol Scataphagos least you got your honey do list done early:D. But you say, not because they "got" from the government, but IN SPITE OF,with no mention of lobbying interest. Here in Indiana we are a republican occupied state and the central government knows best how and when to conduct economic...
Hi, neither I nor anyone who posted complained about the rich, so perhaps you're a bit hungover from a weekend of skiing near your swiss chalet in the alps, while sipping champagne with the Davos crowd. For those that enjoy economics people enjoy breaking down problems and seek solutions. The...
Ordinary people pay most of the taxes in America, there simply aren't enough rich people driving cars to pay all of the fuel taxes for the roads or smoking to pay all of the tobacco taxes and right down the line. Ordinary folks paid over a trillion in FICA taxes as opposed to the income taxes...
I still don't understand why we don't tap the Green River Shale oil reserve which is worth $194,000 per citizen or $60 trillion. America is rich with resources yet the dems n reps can't or won't manage our resources correctly.
We don't as of yet have a military base on the moon. Perhaps the Chinese will let us board their spacecraft so we can rectify that, heck the Russians only charge us $70 million per person per flight.:D
We the American people are custodians of our nation, so ultimately the responsibility of its failure lies with us. You will soon enough have cadre members of either major party responding by claiming it's the other party but it is indeed the failure of the American people to hold accountable its...
What's weird is that the Green River Shale oil deposit is worth $60 trillion and dems and reps both locked it up, I find that odd. If you find yourself in a financial pickle sometimes you have to take grandma's silver tea set down to the pawn shop to raise cash, yet both parties locked this...
Wow ol cut an run Ronnie in Beirut the best idiot of the bunch,such an accomplishment. I remember when he armed terrorist in Afghanistan now we're fighting those same fools. Since the majority of Americans no longer belong to either party that embarrasses America I suppose the idiots in either...
I just seen Congress is rated at 10%, most Americans have figured out we're being led by idiots of both parties, it's difficult to say which is worse. Most Americans belong to neither party because your choices are so awful, Happy Holidays all :)
Hmm, I seen the Fed pdf and USA worth $74.8 trillion, so the redistribution of wealth up the pipe is working well. Seen the pdf on one wal mart in Wisconsin, the employees are getting $900,000 in govt benefits, so either we pay higher retail prices to give the employees wages OR we pay taxes so...
I seen we now have machines replacing doctors who sedate you during surgery, cutting their income. When can an American walk into a pharmacy and purchase medicine without Democrat or Republican approval? Most nations don't require prescriptions unlike the idiots we elect, of course in America...
How can a nation worth $74.8 trillion have poor people? How can a nation that has the Green River Shale oil worth $60 trillion have poor people. Bi partisan legislation keeps the Green River shut down, although you often hear the repukelicans say America should be run like a corporation, well...
The government has a statue of limitations on many things but apparently corporations can screw you even if THEY made the mistake going back decades, I guess in the end it's always the little guy getting screwed:mad:
Riot? Please, you can't even get people to protest things and get off their cell phones or couches anymore. If they were hungry they would go hunting, anyone know if hunting or fishing permits are up? Enjoy your day all
