    Beyond Twinkies: Why More Workers Are Striking

    Once a place is unionized the social makeup changes. People wind up in jobs that they aren't suited for because the pay is so good they can't quit. The unhappiness grows, the bosses become animal trainers and eventually somebody decides to just shut it all down and go do something else. All...

    Good example of why unions are stupid as all hell

    The type of thinking that enables unions to bankrupt their employers is the same kind that dominates the Democrats.. they are doing the same thing at every level of government.

    let's sue Obama.....

    Essentially, the Obama admin is going to try the same stuff that got us into the mortgage crisis. I recall in the Clinton era the tv reports about how a black man would be denied a loan at the same bank where anybody else could get one. They would show the whining guy and the bank and never...

    USPS what is the point?

    All these unionized public sector workers have all these massive benefits promised to them. I wonder what will happen when the inflation gets going? Will they keep insisting that we should starve all the old people on fixed incomes so they can have their sex change operations and whatnot?

    House report blames Corzine for collapse of MF Global

    From the first referenced article: "When MF Global’s chief risk officer disagreed with Corzine about the size of the company’s European bond portfolio, Corzine directed him to report to [COO and former Corzine chief of staff Bradley] Abelow rather than to MF Global’s board of directors"...

    let's sue Obama.....

    This kind of stuff is what marxists revel in. They wallow in it like pigs in shit. How does it feel to be a hard working person in the US if the government is going to do everything it can to bring you down to the level of the parasite class?

    Congratulations to Grover Lundquist

    Here's the thing: Republicans passed an act that required a balanced budget. Democrats got it thrown out... that was in the Reagan years, the last time I felt like there was any hope for the US btw. So what are Republicans supposed to do after that? They are shackled to people that want to spend...

    when you type things like that do you picture yourself wearing a silk scarf around your neck, sitting on a throne and giving a dismissive wave of your little hand? I do...

    Horrible Disaster Stories

    I used a third party interface between a charting package and the broker. I discovered that if price was under ten cents it added three zeroes to the price! I never got to production with that bug in place but it could have been a fat finger error that I never would have forgotten.

    President Obama is to meet labor and progressive leaders to discuss the fiscal cliff

    Same old question that has been asked for decades while the economy crumbles around our ears: who is going to pay for all this? The tax rate that is thought to kill an economy is about 50%.. everything stops when half the people are making a living off the other half.. all of our public...

    Gary Kaminsky, cry me a f***ing river

    who gives a shit about all the people in all these distressing situations that didn't prepare for the worst? I mean, who really gives a rat's ass? I've been through a couple of major earthquakes that shut things down entirely for days and weeks.. I wasn't bitching about missing any aid from the...

    Taxing the rich will not solve the problem.

    There is nothing at all that can save the US. Taxes could not be raised high enough no matter what, if they were they would kill off the remainder of the economy. The public sector, all the cities, counties, states, and the federal government have budgets that total half or more of the GNP...

    The Left is fascistic. They have crafted a nice cooperation between government and much of industry and together they rule.

    Rationality: it can happen

    Management can be automated easier than manufacturing. Managers can be replaced with programs that hand out tasks to the best qualified person, that get feedback from every person receiving the results of a task and from every person doing a task.. raises can be given according to the very...

    Rationality: it can happen

    F^&k yes.. Karl Marx is correct; The guy with the machines makes the money!! Jobs are going to illegals, automation is doing more and more of the work every day... WIN stands for Work Is Nonprofit!! We have two classes of people nowadays, those that profit from the machines and those that...
