Exactly.

not much fum if we agree with each other

part of the problem is a lot of very capable people are locked out of higher skilled jobs because of the hiring process employers use. So we have people employed way below their potential and people getting hired for jobs way over their heads because they are able to meet the basic qualifications required by the employer. Book smart, but unable to do much in the real world.

Add in the networking that gets people jobs and locks out people without the right connects and we get to deal with somebodies nephew who is stupid as s**t, but his uncle got him the job.

What's worse is when that nephew does something that should get him fired, but it is overlooked whereas people without the relationship would be tossed out on nitpicking details.

also the lawsuit happy victims of not being a younger white guy that prevents people from getting fired who would be if they where a young white guy.

I am not sure what you're referring to exactly. In the Burger King by where I live everyone who works there is Mexican, in the McDonald's where I used to work one of the managers is racist against white people and goes out of her way to hire everyone else. White people get no benefits for the lack of melanin their bodies have, whereas people of different shades of skin get benefits for something they didn't choose and can't practically change (ignoring weirdos like Michael Jackson with his indoor playground.) So what are you referring to?

that most places are chicken to fire people because they will go cry to a lawyer, except white guys, they can fire them and nothing happens.

I suppose they've got nothing to loose, so they have no problem with making life difficult to impossible for those they can easily get away with doing it to. Back two thousand years ago Roman crowds cheered to watch people suffer and die horrible deaths, facings all sorts of impossible odds, enjoying their emotional nightmare as they die. It might not be the same, but I think some managers take pleasure in throwing people away and watching them struggle to survive.

yes the world is full of mini tyrants angry at the world because after 4 years of college they aren't a multimillionaire CEO of a fortune 500 company

burger king manager was annoying the kid waiting on me telling him to hurry up, I told him to leave the kid alone, he is doing fine and he was lucky the kid came to work for what he paid him.
I was the only customer in the place midafternoon

another fast food place the dork manager is telling the burger maker to hurry up, he made 3 burgers wrong real fast for me.

There is no labor shortage, just a shortage of people willing to work for azzholes for peanuts. If there was a shortage, things would be in short supply, look at all the crap in stores, we don't have a shortage of anything.

Since people tent to vote their pocketbook, I'd have to say I'm a Working-class Libertarian.

I'm pro peoples rights in most cases, but as you go up the food chain, there should be more rules and restrictions on the behavior of those on top.

Government should be small but have big teeth to sink into the throat of large corporations should the need arise.

A certain corporation in Bentonville Arkansas should get a few warnings saying "stop taking over our cities and feeding China with our financial resources" and if it doesn't stop within a few weeks, SHOCK AND AWE!! !! !! !! I love the Air Force!!

Economically: FREE MARKET! The state is always less effiecient at providing goods than is private industry, and government goods are not "free." They just steal from one person, give to filthy bureaucrats and corrupt politicians, and then claim there's no money left to help the poor. I used to be a Socialist on humanitarian grounds, even if it is less efficient. The flaw in my reasoning was that I aassumed a government composed of intelligent and benevolent individuals. Obviously this is not and will never be the case. Since government will always be corrupt, it is necessary to limit the amount of damage it can do. However, I am entirely for government funding of our basic infrastructure such as roads, etc. Also the government should keep our borders secure and provide military when needed- but not for crap like is going on in Iraq now. The governemnt should subsidize education, but should not provide it directly- disconnecting the consumer from the provider's paycheck results in a decline in quality control. I could also tolerate some governemnt subsidization of healthcare, but not in the same way MediCare works(you know that doctors actually PROFIT from prescribing the most expensive available drugs?)
I support the abolition of the IRS and income tax, as the revenue does not even fund our government- it's just handed over to the private banking interests, and besides, it violates the Constitution. I fully support the Constitution of the United States except for those parts illegally ratified or in opposition to the original (such as amendments 16, 17, and 23), and hope that our federal government will come to see that it does not have the authority to do most of what it does.
I would like a return to sound currency, not the counterfeit Monopoly Money issued by the fradulent Federal Reserve.
We need to reform our trade relations with foreign nations, such as the Chinese who are pulling off all kinds of tricks with their currency to keep America locked in an unfavorable balance of trade.
Socially, I am for Biblical morality but understand that I can not force my own views on others in this regard. As long as someone is not harming others, they should be left alone. Get the government out of our business as mandated by the Fourth Amendment. Last year, I was recorded on no less than 23 cameras on my way into my first class at school. This is ridiculous. The Second Amendment does not refer to hunting or to the national guard, it refers to the right of individuals to be armed to the tooth if they so please. Jefferson himself expressed a desire that "every man be armed" and encouraged revolution against oppressive government, even openly praising Shay's Rebellion. The First Amendment was meant to protect the integrity of the press and to ensure the safety to vehemently criticize the government. Our government should not be spending billions of dollars of our money to wage a propaganda war against us by buying out the major media outlets. They also should not use subterfuge and violence to attain political ends, ie Operation Northwoods, Gulf of Tonkin hoax, assassination of JFK, frauds to bring us into war against England (the War of 1812 was justified for British actions for which they apologized and offered restitution before the outbreak of war) Spain (Remember the Maine was an admitted hoax), Germany (we violated international law and supported the Brits in their attempt to starve and murder German civilians), Vietnam (the aforementioned Gulf of Tonkin "incident") attempts against Egypt (staged attacks against our own battleship, the Liberty, and direct orders from LBJ to US military to stand down and not protect it) and Cuba (see Operation Northwoods) and now Iraq and Afghanisan (the Taliban offered to hand over Bin Laden if we showed them evidence that he was involved in 9/11. Instead we invaded them). Iraq had no involvement in 9/11, as has been admitted by the illiterate drug addict we call President, and they had no weapons. If we worry about the spread of nuclear weapons, we should stop selling them to India and Pakistan.
Restore the Old Republic that was America under Jefferson. Vote Ron Paul 2008.

I support the Constitution Party, they haven't nominated a candidate yet, but I'm not voting for the major parties anymore they have to much already and don't need any more.

Here is what the Constitution Party is for:




Seven Principles of the Constitution Party are:

1. Life: For all human beings, from conception to natural death;
2. Liberty: Freedom of conscience and actions for the self-governed individual;
3. Family: One husband and one wife with their children as divinely instituted;
4. Property: Each individual's right to own and steward personal property without government burden;
5. Constitution: and Bill of Rights interpreted according to the actual intent of the Founding Fathers;
6. States' Rights: Everything not specifically delegated by the Constitution to the federal government is reserved for the state and local jurisdictions;
7. American Sovereignty: American government committed to the protection of the borders, trade, and common defense of Americans, and not entangled in foreign alliances.

If this was a perfect world....... yes, that would happen.

/sigh

If I wasn't a slave to my paycheck, I'd gladly lead an armed rebellion against the Feds.

They sound a little too conservative for my tastes.

I support abortion,
I'm not opposed to gay civil unions
and... I'm not an isolationist.

I think I'll stick with the Libertarian Party. Anyone who has P.J. O'Rourke as a member has to be cool.

I guess that's why guns are almost illegal: the government has grown so corrupt that it's afraid of its own people.

That's okay, everyone has a right to their opinion.
