It is the twenty first century, is it time to do away with antiquated and outdated liberal contraptions?

Postby barclay76 » Sat Dec 17, 2011 5:58 am

Yes, with the exception of child labor laws. How are they lib again?

Less regulations, or restructured regs would be better.

Social security should be optional

Unions have outlived their usefulness in a good society

Lib media should go, media should be unbiased

Minimum wage hurts not only businesses, but workers. What rate should be minimum?

Couldn't agree more. Especially on the issue of unions.

Here in California we have over 230,000 unionized state employees with over $150 billion in unpaid pension benefits. There are also 40,000 unionized state employees making over six figures a year, and many retired state employees are drawing 120% of their salaries as retirement. All this despite a $20 billion deficit and 12% unemployment.

Link to show that most union members are government employees:

I would say yes to getting rid of everything except minimum wage, I think that we should hold business owners more accountable for paying minimum wage that way illegals can't come here and take jobs from Americans because they'll work for $4.00/hr

No, but it is high time we got rid of the bigots, religious zealots, and anti intellectuals calling themselves conservatives. You are too stupid for words...
