Why do only democrats oppose child sweatshops?

[JBeukema]

I choose Federalism over Socialism

False dichotomy.

Consider any public libraries or aid for the poor- run by the States, cities, or colonies, rather than the Fed.

Socialism/Unionism

false equivalency.

Go read my links in the 'Difference between socialism and communism' thread to get an idea of what you're talking about.

is very selective indeed in who benefits, and outside of that small circle of elites, the rest of us are screwed

What're you babbling about? I I get it, you're an uneducated dolt who thinks authoritarian bureaucratic collectivism and the tyrannical oligarchy of 'Vangard' revolutionaries even remote resembles the socialism advocated by Social Democrats, democratic Socialists, and others- because you get all your disinformation from Glenn Beck.

. It's always been that way.

Class struggle? Understanding history as the interactions between oppressors and oppressed? Okay, Karl

Taking from the achievers and transferring the wealth, power, and property from one group to another, under the banner of social Justice,

Actually, it's usually under the banner of 'divine right' or 'the capitalist takes the risk', but don't start sounding like you have a clue now.

I'll chose a penny's worth of wheat for a penny, and an honest scale to weigh it every time.

NIST Weights and Measures Division

The Weights and Measures Division promotes uniformity in U.S. weights and measures laws, regulations, and standards to achieve equity between buyers and sellers in the marketplace. This enhances consumer confidence, enables U.S. businesses to compete fairly at home and abroad, and strengthens the U.S. economy.


WMD partners with the National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM), an organization of State and local weights and measures officials and representatives of business, industry, consumer groups, and Federal agencies, to develop U.S. standards in the form of uniform laws, regulations, and methods of practice. WMD serves as the U.S. representative to the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) to bring efficiency and cost savings to U.S. manufacturers and other stakeholders doing business overseas, through the promotion of harmonized international standards and regulatory practices.

The thing about the Free Market, when it is really free, you can walk away,

-and starve

you can compete,

thanks to the breaking up of the monopolies and trusts

you are free to devise a way to do something better, bigger, safer

There were regulations put in place to achieve that Starting with Hoover, we saw what happens when big corporations get to make the rules and prevent upstarts from being able to compete on even ground

The title of this thread should read why are some people so stupid they think only Democrats or only any grp is opposed to anything.

I thought Dems were the ones opposed to stereotyping and profiling why do you guys always insist and making comments like only democrats oppose sweat shops? You do realize you are being just as ignorant and bigoted as any Racist White man in the south in the 50's. You are lumping people together in grps and making judgments and assumptions about them based on what grp they are in.

Sad

They have to deflect the truth in order to maintain relevence in the eyes of the weak minded.

'An entire people'?

So neonazis are 'an entire people' because they all base their views on Mein Kampf?

Is this obtuseness willful or are you really this ignorant? Weren't you just bitching on another thread about truncating posts?
Honestly, you're dismissed.

Let's try and distinguish between God and what people have claimed and written about Him and the Prophets, and People in his Name. We even do it today with Bush, with Obama, supporters putting the subject in the brightest light, detractors slinging as much mud as possible. It is part of the Human condition. What it is reflective of is the disconnect between Man and God, by our own hand or mouth. It doesn't change what is Righteous, it corrupts the claim and is actually testimony against the claim, for those that refuse to digest the Kool-Aid.

The Torah, The Bible, are inspired by God, yet they fall short, because they were corrupted by men, both intentionally and unintentionally, by scribes that had to choose between loyalties and defend bad actions by people that were not perfect. Just because Someone claimed God told them to do or not do this or that, doesn't make it true. Be it Moses or Hitler, the killing of innocents is a hard thing to digest. Be it Mohammad, redefining who is an innocent, and who can't qualify, creating a loophole to murder, that just doesn't sit well either. All done in God's name??? Really??? Or was it done to attempt to Justify a wrong doing???

JB ... as much as you despise Locke, he saw through that, and based his whole philosophy on the two Great Commandments for that reason. Think more Deist. Search for the truth where it can be found, the treasures are hidden, in the sense that there are changes we all must go through to experience them. The Scriptures are a tool, filled with blessings and curses, keys and pitfalls. There are those limited by them and those that are not. This is not about hypocrisy, but overcoming obstacles in the way of growth. Do not blame God for what we do to each other, in His Name or not, with the Free Will We asked for. Consequence and Conscience are also both guides, when we are honest, we benefit.

Total, complete, and utter bullshit.

So you've rejected the Christian and Jewish positions and adopted the Muslim one?

If the documents aren't infallible,. then anything they claim that cannot be corroborated or otherwise supported does not withstand scrutiny- your entire religion falls apart.


Now, back to the subject at hand

No, I choose to believe in God without having to wear a harness or straight jacket.

My relationship with God is first based on Conscience and personal relationship, not other peoples words or claims.

If you base your faith on the words of humans that are corruptible, your faith is corruptible, no matter what you claim God to be. The Bible is a tool, it is not, nor has ever claimed to be God.

JB, How many times do you suffer the injustices by humans by any name or means, only to find disappointment??? How are they any closer to the author of creation than you???
Those that despite-fully use you, wipe their feet on you, and toss you aside are somehow holier than you??? I say what is your best witness. What truth do you know based on your life experience??? What brought you there. What never abandoned you and was there to pick up the pieces when the worst was over??? Do you want to translate it through bible verse??? Do you want to translate it through conscience and life experience, fine, either way. Do we live life through our own perspectives, or other peoples??? Perspectives, open doors, be they self realized or borrowed, the path remains the path either way.

The post was addressed to JB, not you. The intent was to get through to him past the scars. Had I been communicating to you about God or Scripture, right off the top of my head, I would refer to First Kings Chapter 8, Ezekiel Chapter 18, Isaiah Chapter 53, Psalm's Chapter 22, Jeremiah Chapter 23.

What is Sincerity of Heart to you?

What is the meaning of repentance to you?

So if someone was to say to you, put God first in all things and love your neighbor as your self, how would you translate that?

Bottom line here is perspective, you look good when you don't stray so far, however the whole truth is not limited to your perspective. No matter the brand, when the practice is taking control over what others produce, corrupting the value and worth, compromising whatever false ideals are claimed, and short changing the whole is a fail.

Hamilton fucked us over early on, Marrying big government to big business ever since. Federalism really didn't get much of a chance to grow, not the way it was originally presented. The Referee now has players on the field, money bet on the other team, and the rules change every time the ref get's a bug up it's ass, thanks to him. So much for the claim to protect us from all enemies, foreign and domestic. That said, the true issue being total control over our lives, it is a small fraction of what socialism/communism/marxism has to offer. Fuck Totalitarian control. There is no good in it. It is a power trip from beginning to end.
