Republicans continue on their quest to destroy everything the U.S. stands for.

too snarky

Exactly what workers "rights" are you talking about? The right to demand higher pay from your employer? The right to demand more benefits? The right to a better retirement package? Or severance pay?

If you have the skills, you should have the right to do all of these things. Why shouldn't people be able to bargain for these things?

More specific rights are a safe work environment, misrepresenting an employees work record, failure to meet original employment contract, standard work day and week, rules on what activities employees can be asked to perform, the list goes on and on. You don't recognize the importance of these rights and why they are in place because you have never had to live outside of these rules. Employment is a multiple party agreement, and there should be standard protections in place for both the employee and employer. Child labor is a good example.

And exactly what consumers "rights"? The right to have the government monitor and regulate everything you buy so that you don't make any stupid decisions?

You don't have to be stupid to get taken by fraud, and fraud is and should be a crime, and the government should do its job of prosecuting crooks who commit fraud. The easiest example is false advertising. Yeah, there are stupid people who make bad decisions, but there are also intelligent people who get taken by these schemes. In the end, we all get screwed if this is allowed. How do you not get this?

In a truely free society where capitalism thrives and the quality of life is higher than anywhere else in the world, you need to be responsible for yourself.

This is where you might want to look into some historical realities. The U.S. economy has done its best when effective regulations protecting the rights of the people were in place, and the rich paid higher taxes.

What the U.S. has is a market economy, and market economies work best when there is an evenly enforce fair set of rules for commerce, just like in professional sports leagues. Without the rules in place, mob mentality takes over, what you have is one group out to screw another. This is why third world countries are screwed up. Their government fail to evenly enforce a fair set of rules. The whole con of the free market/communist scam that things work best if market activity is a big free for all is unrealistic idealistic nonsense. It is the exact same thing as the idea behind communism, which also believes that we don't need government.

We all know that responsibility is a scary prospect, but please, grow up and learn to take care of yourself so that the rest of us don't have to be oppressed by your nanny government..

You post like you are young enough and dumb enough to think you know it all. You probably prefer being ignorant, it is always easier to do as you are told like a slave, than stand up and fight for your rights. Its obvious that you have been completely condition when you have a problem with someone demanding higher compensation for their skills. Most likely because you have no skills to bargain with.

Too bad the economic failure of nanny-state europe proves that living off the governments teet just doesn't work. It would behoove some people to take a basic college course in economics (that is .. if they are old enough to go to college yet)

Europe does far better than the mafia controlled third world nations where rich people can do anything they want, and make all the rules, which is the way repubilcans/conservatives want the U.S. ran.

It is pretty ignorant to claim that Europe is an economic failure. Ignorance begetting ignorance begetting ignorance.

You really think the U.S. government controls the International Corporate Bankers?

You are fooling yourself. It is just the other way around. The ICBs control the puppet strings.

How do you not see this?

So know we get into shadow government and so on.
Funny as all those tales lead to the people being big progressives.

Still a big fat turd next to another turd, when comparing the two.

The democrats have done a great deal of harm as well, political correctness in itself is a plague on our nation, but the republicans out do them.

While democrats wind up selling influence for campaign funds, republicans are willing partners.

Currently the republicans are by far the most evil of the two.

I am not foolish enough to pretend government doesn't have its problems, nor am I foolish enough to think that private enterprise is not as equally corrupt, and know that they can do as much damage.

No you did not as you keep on deflecting.

HOW DOES A NEW REGULATION OVER SAY SONY HINDER OR OBSTRUCT YOUR PERSONAL LIBERTY?

I see the little kid games continue, the mud slinging continues. It's far easier to lob a character assassination then it is to answer a damn q.

That's right, tv news hasn't instructed you on how to respond. You have no right or freedoms when all you do is rehash and defend to the death talking points via programming via lamestream media!

The entire GOP has the pie all over their face and are trying to backpeddle out of it now while their entire face is full of pie!

As the owner of a corp, I am restricted in many things. Donations is one.
If I own just a business, then I am not as restricted,

Gone over many many times.
You just don't like the answer and have nothing except the bandwagon of a member to jump into.
Don't you have a party with some high member of congress to go to?
Maybe the Quenn of England?

Oh thats right, the last president, who created how many new agencies, laws and
agendas was voted into a second term with

62,028,285 votes.

Are you telling me that sixty two million progressives voted for George W Bush,
do you even think about what you write? Somehow it is the progressives
fault for what conservatives vote for and support? Thats some fancy cowardice

Blah blah blah.
Same attempt at romantic liberalism.
If it were a character assassination, I merely withdraw and watch you implode, as you spout off BS like meeting with Ron Paul, or sex parties and so on.
