    This is the far right

    You're not getting it. "In a recession, the employer can take advantage of the employee's perception that unemployment could potentially ruin him/her - true or not." - The employee should not be getting their information from their employer about unemployment. The employee doesn't have to...

    This is the far right

    Me and you have to have dinner some night to discuss how we understand that people need to take care of themselves and not rely on assumptions, thier neighbor, or the government.

    This is the far right

    If you sign a job contract that doesn't have your salary or wage in writing or print, then you don't deserve to get paid. If you don't verbally agree to a salary or wage, then you don't deserve to get paid. If you don't sign a contract containing rights as an employee then... oh, must I go on?

    Consider them excommunicated from the LSD Church. LDS, sorry.

    IS Chivalry Dead? If so, Who Killed It?

    If it is dead, then the feminist movement killed it. "We're equal! Hey! OPEN THE DOOR FOR ME!" just doesn't work for logical men (or women).

    Why should I care what the constitution says about anything?

    The OP was taken seriously and conversations are actually trying to be held with the guy? People are surprising. I read it and thought, "Only an idiot..." Anything I would have said has already been said, but I'd emphasize the part where you call the Constitution "ancient" and from the...

    This is the far right

    Employers shouldn't have to pay for anything that the employer and employee didn't agree on. If the employee signs his work contract that his life insurance won't cover cancer then he won't get covered. If the employee bargains for a lower-salary/better-benefits or just better-benefits and gets...

    What are you right wing fiscal hawks going to do with the nutjob right ?[W:8, 28]

    Re: What are you right wing fiscal hawks going to do with the nutjob right ? You only attack drug testing as being discrimination, you offer no connection between drug testing and fascism. The libertarian thing would be to let the business-owners do what the employee's contract says the...

    This is why there are Unions

    Instead of a Union, why don't the folks grow a pair and confront their employer? If the employer laughs in their face, then they can quit. The hell has happened to self-responsibility? These people act like they don't know how to wipe their own ass sometimes.

    What are you right wing fiscal hawks going to do with the nutjob right ?[W:8, 28]

    Re: What are you right wing fiscal hawks going to do with the nutjob right ? I don't understand why anyone is actually taking the OP seriously. He hasn't made one post without degrading a group with generalizations and resorting to extremist vocabulary. Calling an employer a fascist for drug...

    Freedom of stupidity

    Actually, my town in Texas bans texting and e-mailing while driving. Signs have been posted on most major roads saying, "Remember, no texting or e-mailing while driving. It's the law." So, that argument is invalid. For more information about the legality of texting while driving, and just...

    Freedom of stupidity

    Right to be stupid? This by itself is stupidity at its finest. I'm assuming you wish the government to govern which route you take to work so you won't idiotically waste gas taking a longer route. It's ridiculous what some people think.

    Success. Singular. :p

    Grand Old Party at its BEST!

    Then be happy with what you have. Not everybody is destined to be a white-collar CEO. If you can't afford your mortgage, then you took a mortgage that you can't afford and that is your fault. It is about being responsible for yourself. If you can't provide for yourself, how can you expect the...

    What is the greatest success in US history?

    Considering the U.S. is one of a few nations in history (under three or so, don't remember the number) to have to fight a war to end slavery, I don't think that can be considered the greatest success. I'd say the creation of the Bill of Rights.
