Why don't you open a business and hire a lot of full time employees and sign them all up for the costly Obamacare?
It's easier to talk about what others should do with their money but if you aren't paying a lot of Obamacare for your employees then you might not really know.
Meanwhile the real trend is to just have contract labor and give no benefits of any kind, no legal minimum wage, no social security or other taxes taken out of paychecks. And nothing at all is being done about those businesses that do this.
It was more of me asking for proof since RoadKing made a positive assertion about Obamacare. He provided links to help validate his claim, so I'm content with that.
Yes, and that's the only real reason the liberals want unlimited immigration, especially the very cheapest kinds, unless they're the bleeding hearts that think the entire 2 billion impoverished of the world can simply come here and be handed a very nice standard of living.
Liberals in the past -- such as Cesar Chavez (not the boxer, the UFW guy) were opposed to open borders and illegal immigration because they were intelligent to know it was to bring wages and job benefits down. Liberals today aren't all that smart.
Burger flipper jobs have always been counted. A job is a job.
From 2008:
Hannity paid $100 million over 5 years, plus a piece of the profit for his radio gig. No clue what Fox pays him. He is well paid to tell his audience what they want to hear and keep them in a continual state outrage.
This is something people, by and large, don't seem to want to understand about the mass media. The corporations that run these outlets pay the talking heads handsomely to say what they want them to say, whether true or not.
The U.S. continues to lead the world in terms of disposable income, per capita.
That depends on what you mean by disposable income. Is that the income that's left after the minimum payments on the seven maxed-out credit cards are made?
The job creators, whom we gave tax breaks to, hired them.
Obviously they have good lobbyists, and the establishment politicians in both parties are in cahoots with them. That is why those bought and paid for politicians refuse to enforce our immigration laws and will not protect the border. So tell me, why is it only conservatives understand this, and liberals don't?
We will simply not need labor as we become more technologically advanced and automated. Many jobs these days are lost because we have machines and computers to do jobs much more efficiently. It's only going to get worse. 200 years from now, there won't be construction and manufacturing jobs, they'll be done by machines. Many people won't have to work anymore.

We'll need to cut our lifestyle to consume 1/2 as much. Our obsession with living beyond our means has worsened our dependence on ever increasing wages.
