Wal Mart Bill Struck Down

[red states rule]

RWA I have you cornered and you know it, wanna know how? You haven't posted in the hypocrite outsourcing thread.

It is not hard to bust a liberal. They meltdown within 3 or 4 posts

RWA has this preoccupation with sex

Must be a Clintonista

Oh no, women treat RWA like a bitch, well at least the few he has known. If he were a Clintonista he'd be able to hang on to at least one.

Trust me on this, my sources are friggin golden.

The funny thing is that RWA used to be hardcore conservative, its disappointing that he changed SOOOOOOOO easily to a lib, shows no spine or intestinal fortitude.

Interesting. Sounds as though they (you) are saying money is like gravey, a perk. Almost like the good or service isn't a way to make money and cash is only a vehicle in providing the good or service. Is that right?

That's what the PhDs told me in college... In the real world, I'm not so sure. I think the two things go hand-in-hand (good/service & money). You aren't going to make $$$ if you don't have a desirable good/service, but, even if you have a desirable good/service, you aren't going to want to provide it unless you can make at least SOME sort of profit. But I think the profs were trying to instill some sense of ethics, that making money shouldn't be one's only goal.

All your stupid sayings aren't going to save you this time. I'm preparing to open up the can of whoopass on you for about the 4th time.

Be a man and answer your hypocrisy.

Also its funny you say Cynthia because your politics resemble Sheehans more and more everyday...thats no stretch of the imagination either.

I found, in lectures that they didn't diffentiate between small business and corporations. I think the goal of the small business owner starts out much different than the primary function of a coporation, which is profit, derived from the good or service. Not that the small guy doesn't want to make money either, it's just that they are worthy of distinction since not all small business owners want to grow into something ginormous like Wal-mart.


I presently work for a small IT business that is growing rapidly. The owner is having trouble relinquishing control and is not really concerned about growing, he just wants to stay afloat and keep his customers, employees and suppliers happy.

Companies that abuse their employees or do not provide a safe or enjoyable workplace will not be profitable, the marketplace and making a profit will be the regulators for this......no government interference is needed.

Any other view is socialistic.

Here that's true because osha will shut them down. In china, using slaves is very profitable.

You're just plain wrong. You evidently have forgotten the labor riots and regulations which you think occurred due to natural law. Chinese laborers are shot if they try to riot or strike. You're apparently ignorant of our history.

Which proves they were NEVER a conservative

They are RINO's or libs who say were conservatives but now see the "light"

I'm not entirely in agreement with that, because of the element of power. working conditions can be less than safe or enjoyable, and some workers will put up with this bc they need the income, depending on the choices available to them. Some don't have many. However, the company owners are in a different position of power, depending on the situation/success of the company. This is what sparked the need for unions & regulation in the first place.

However, I am not for restricing Walmart. Business should be very loosely regulated, IMO. But some regulation is necessary.

No I haven't forgotten, they moverd things along but union intervention and government regulation is no longer needed in today's society.

As for what happens in other societies I could give two shits less.

Are you a member of the afl-cio?

I think the people suing Walmart for healthcare benefits were barking up the wrong tree. Instead of biting the hand that feeds them, they should have been seeing what steps could be taken to loosen the insurance biz's death grip on access/control of healthcare and putting a stop to outrageous litigation against health providers, which would halp drive costs down.

They can call John "Pretty Boy" Edwards to take the case. He is in need of a job these days

The left suffered another defeat today.....

Wait wait wait... I thought "The Left" was all about activist judges ruling from the bench and ursurping the will of elected officals and the people?

Obviously "The Left" is out dancing in the street and burning some American flags, for good messure, right now in celebration.

Die democracy, die!

The libs in Maryland passed this state law that tries to trump Federal law.

The "Wal Mart" bill singled out one company only in its attempt to extort money

The Jugde saw through the libs claim of trying to "impose a payroll tax"
