Perhaps you're right. Not all people do this, but ACORN is a good example. DO you remember that video?  Not all do that, but all the same, why reward those who do?

It will be the broke drug addict who want $20 dollars to turn his life around, and proceeds to get another hit. NOt all people are drug addicts, but those that are ruin it for everyone else.

First, I try to be polite, is it so much to ask that in return?

Second, If I do what you say, you know, I don't want them to just get it, I will stop paying x sum of taxes. How do you think that will go over?

if you want to be more polite, you be more logical. don't blame everybody. blame who deserves it.

making everything a black and white point of view is not going to help or change anything. i'm sick of hearing these orthodox opinions being rammed up everyone's ass, because certain people expect the world to fucking work.

stop it. stop it please... i can't stand it. people are going to drive insane with there illogical pandering bullshit.

you wanna talk ACORN... TALK FUCKING ACORN.

*now will apologize for being angry. i and you would get along quite fine in RL. i'd do work to help you out like a friend... i'd take and follow your instruction, if i had the power to do so, literally. but your opinions, as much as they matter, are NOT a truth. it is of opinions, and it should be construed as such*

You are one of the few here with whom I can conduct a conversation without descending into profanity or semantics. I left you a +5.

As for ACORN, They, on camera, provided instructions on how best to house illegals, have the fed pay for them ( me via taxes), and have them act as prostitutes, all with the help of my money subsidizing it. Oh and the money to be laundered into their political campaign. This is an extreme example, but you see my point?

These people got my money. This is how it turned out. This is an example we know about, what about the ones we don't?

There was a time before minimum wage, it exists now because what you're saying is horse shit.



Your just indoctrinated that the state needs to protect people from themselves. If you can negotiate your own wages it is more equitable for everyone as everyone's true talents are represented instead of the government assuming every worker is the same.

i'm still pissed off ignore the tone. i am trying to be polite.*

there are plenty of examples. YES people who want something for nothing, are idiots. look at me for example... i was an idiot once... (and i'm still an idiot, though maybe less so)** i thought i deserved things for simply being around and i still haven't changed much... only one thing has changed... i don't ask for anything. NOTHING. i might be a little fucked up... but at least i understand nowadays that i can't EXPECT anything. period.


i earn it, OR someone gives to me of their own free will. YES, sometimes i'm an asshole... alot even... i don't pay my debts... because i feel that i don't any. call me a jerk. but i don't ASK for ANY OF IT. now, if i was in your position. SURE i'd be pissed. who wouldn't be. but there are so many example of this rampant bullshit... that to pit it all on people being "weak" or "stupid" is ASININE, and i get enraged when i see it. it's contradictory, first of all, and secondly the world ins't perfect... aside from it being perfectly endless with it's bullshit. people who have alot should learn to deal with the bullshit as it comes, and if they're going to preach objectivity, they should preform it. they should DO IT.

poor people can be stupid annoying fucks, like myself... so can rich people. idiots can be annoying and yet they can be useful. smart people can be great, but they can also be USELESS.

so who should really give a flying fuck about making the world work as THEY think it should. they don't have a clue how it should work. if they did. they'd CHANGE IT.

i'm still pissed off ignore the tone. i am trying to be polite.*

PS: yes, it's frustrating and quite frankly like a cancer. but how else do you expect people in power to function. they are human and they want MORE for themselves. they do just like the poor.

when ever someone HAS more... THEY JUST WANT MORE.

man, i am so sick of this shit. :lol: excuse my tone again please. i am fuming, because i know, things will never change. i would rather die poor and taxed, then die trying to change this fucking world.

as sad as that sounds, this seems to be the state of the world to me. i wish i could change.

History shows otherwise. Where can you show a self governing market in reality land which doesn't further stratification and poverty?

Here's a neo-conservative talking about being indoctrinated, the sad part is you have nothing to offer the elites but your nose.

Let me guess.  You were a teenager when you had children.

Anybody in the work force for more than 1 year who is still making minimum wage is retarded



I'm 23 and have no kids. If you read my post like a coherent adult you'd see I said a lot of the people are older people who migrated to make a better life. Every time you post this is all I can really do :rolleyes:

The people in seatac won. Seattle folk are fighting now for 15 dollar minimum wage. They will win the ceos are what .001 of the population. Most are corporations that don't even live here.

What are you even talking about I've been working since I was 11.

Read the rest of it. It's inflation and I'm proud of the cities here in Washington that are fighting to let you make a wage that you can even support yourself.

My dad makes 21$ an hour working for an insane company that does million dollar contracts for nasa. He's even constantly broke. Rents a room so he can have a little spending money and still looking for a part time job serving. That's full time as well. Crazy stuff.

We'll have to disagree.

Change comes slowly. Sometimes it's the change you wanted, sometimes it's not. But not trying is just pathetic.

Quote:
9. It’s a sneaky way to increase welfare spending and raise taxes. Raising taxes to spend more on welfare is a political loser. But raising the minimum wage puts money in the pockets of working poor people, at the expense of business owners (and of consumers who would pay in the form of higher prices). If politicians want to increase the earned income tax credit or other work-related welfare benefits, they should do the hard work of building political support for such policies, rather than choosing the roundabout approach of a minimum wage increase.



And a low minimum wage is a way for companies to get the taxpayers to subsidize their employees' wages when they still qualify for assistance even when working 40 hours.
