Good one Mick. Simple is good. My uncle used to work for the Hoover Institute. He and my father got into an argument about one of the revolutions in Europe. It was funny, Dad said it was because the people had no food to eat, my uncle said it was because of about 100 different things. Both were...

Yeah! Redistribution baby! Class warfare is a tricky thing. They have to get us to hate the rich and successful. Because you know they like had it given to them, or just exploited the slaves for their wealth. Obviously labor will rise to rule the rich, until the money is gone, then were...

I am an evil business owner and the president of an even more evil corporation. Sometimes I throw up in the bushes because I dont know how I am going to pay my bills. Or produce enough so my folks can pay their bills, or my hired man can pay his bills. Or produce enough to satisfy the govt...

Jaysus that pisses me off. You watch these assholes drop their kids off at school, never even looking at their kids, too busy on the smart phone to actually parent. We are working towards starting a program to send food home with these kids so they have something to eat on weekends. They...

Hell of a post Merle. I thought about it today on my way back from the hills on a fishing trip. How hard folks had to work to just survive in this country during the homestead days. If not you did not work hard, you did not survive the winter. Some did not.

The world needs ditch diggers and shit shovelers. We have hungry kids here, some with out health care. Some without good places to live or heat in winter. All of which is provided by the govt if you need it, most of which is squandered by awful "parents". One thing we can do is to have...

Not here. You would be bloody managment at 15! When I go to New Zealand I used to be excited about trying different foods and drinks. No way. They have a 15 dollar min wage. Even with the exchange rate an American cant afford to eat out. Neither can they. They work at the restaurants but cant...

What happens when the seasonal fruit job ends? Is that enough work for the year? It would seem to me that when the labor costs go up, jobs are lost. It has been a great motivator to automate and mechanize. Make flipping burgers a career and witness a machine that wont forget the pickles.

The poor sunsabitches in the oil patch are paying huge prices to live, but not everyone is making roughneck wages.
