To be honest with you I think your full of it. How a guy living in poverty who can never find a place to live always manages to get on the internet is beyond me. IMO you are making up your entire "poverty" story and probably live in some mansion yet you also probably never donate money to anyone you claim to represent. Typical liberal.
This is why America is lost. People care to much about liberals and conservatives. Divide and conquer is how Rome fail. This is where were going to you. You just eat whatever pudding CNBC and fox news throws your way. How about you use your head for once in your lifetime.
And I say if all poor peoples education is based on scholarships, they may as well play the lottery.
Funny you mentioned that. Several states have lottery scholarships based on very low GPA requirements, which are truly just average. Tn is one (2.75 GPA minimum last I checked), and I'm delighted an immense quantity of kids will get tuition paid for via that mechanism.
Sorry, I find no humor in people loosing their jobs, especially at Christmas.
They have the right to protest under the law, just as the owner has the right to pay the wages he chooses, and I would not be surprised if this gets challenged in court under the labor laws. You generally don't fire people when you close to remodel, you lay them off and call them back when you reopen. I hope the employees sue.
This.
What occurred was against the law. I also hope they sue and win.
Ahhh...all of this "compassionate conservatism" that gushes forth from the republican posters on CD (especially around the holidays) just gives me the warm fuzzies all over. And they wonder why they are hated so much.
What makes you think all the people that commented negatively about the workers are republican?
Quite frankly, I am a constitutionalist. I vote for both democrats, and republicans, based on who is best for the job, not who has an R or a D.
Yes, its called food safety and being servsafe certified, but of Mr MBA over here must have already known that.....
That's not as big a deal as you're making it out to be. It's an online course and test, and costs a whopping $15.
Don't be so disingenuous with your arguments. If you can't support your position without resorting to half-truths, maybe your position isn't that stable to begin with and should be reconsidered.
That is the fault of the Obama administration for killing the job market.
A smart person will widen their prospects, take advantage of opportunities, and have an idea of what they want to do, so they can be employed even if a job killing Democrat is in the White House.
Obama is bad. So was Bush. So was the past congress for the last decade. Nobody ever dares points out how bad congress sucks...they held our government hostage for years.

And it requires you take an course which cost hundreds. Think before you speak.
Hey go start a business and reap the rewards instead of trying to hold a business hostage. Yes crap like this does make me sick too because folks like YOU encourage folks to do this and they lose their jobs. You don't care though like most liberals as long as your doing ok. Pack of hypocrites. If you cared YOU would start a sandwich company and pay folks fifteen bucks an hour........instead you blame others.
Its not holding ANYONE hostage except for the citizens of this country who must pay for the welfare for these poor people who are working but their greedy companies who refuse to pay a livable wage.I don't think I would care to run a business with employees simply because I don't want to deal with all the crap but if I did.A livable wage would be the FIRST thing I made sure I did. If they can't live off what I am paying them then in essence I am still paying them from my own pocket and taxes for their welfare! Makes more sense and makes me feel better knowing they don't need welfare because I pay them more.
