I rented for most of my life, I've always been able to convince my landlord not to raise my rent. Why? Because we were excellent tenants, we paid our rent on time, kept the place clean, were not loud, and our children were very well behaved.

The usual tenants landlords have are loud, quarrelsome jerks who never pay on time, live like slobs, and their children are unruly brats who cause property damage and grief for the other tenants and the landlord .

We are now not much different than the Communist Soviet Union where you have the wealthy elite at the top and everyone else is poor.
This is the natural state of an economy. For the most part, middle class is a state manufactured class.

No wonder the whole world thinks of the USAtard as totally tarded!
Examples of posts like this one are why the world thinks of the US as completely ignorant. Unless, you are under the age of 16 and then it's ok.

Hells yes! Put those money-grabbing little whiners to work. Spoken like a true Conservative. Heck, maybe they can work out in the fields like those migrant farm workers that help deliver food to your table. Ship those folks back home so some AMERICAN kids can get the work!

Oh - and drop out of that useless education system - another conservative dream.

I think we should help our elected representatives pass bills like this one.

http://www.senate.mo.gov/11info/pdf-...ntro/SB222.pdf
SB222 - Modifies the child labor laws



What's wrong with that?

PS. get a job, stop having kids, don't have abortions. Plus, repent and wealth will come to you.
I wasn't sure if you were being sarcastic until I saw your next post , below. Then I knew! Unfortunately, to too many from the party of stupid believe every word you just wrote!

Lets just tell Obama, that certain people on this forum, want more illegals to come. Hey what is a few more right! Democraps are a conniving bunch of people, and have to get their way, at all cost no matter what. That is disgusting. Bribe, lies, and deceit is what this Chicago President and administration are all about.

And your so right, the Democrats see our border crisis, as opportunities for themselves, and no more.

Another disgus
ting thought, but hey more votes for their party, and they don't care where the votes come from.
Here's a thought for ya - Obama has deported more than any other President. Wow! How does that sprinkle on your conflakes?

OH - and let me guess - we never, EVER had any border problems until Obama. Never.

Wow. No wonder you folks are upset.

Really? Who told you that?

Or is this just a sly play on the race card?

Don't do drugs.
Quit hanging out with losers.
Don't marry a loser.
Don't be a stay-at home mom. Go to work so if he dies or dumps you, you can support yourself.

We have no classes in the US, we are not some feudal European country. People move in and out of jobs and occupations, sometimes earning more or less as an employee or as a owner operator.

You know what raising minimum wage gets us, more automation to take over those job positions, its either deal with what you get paid, or let automation take your job.

Yeah, they're not a protected class.

"With the recent passing of the Monsanto Protection Act, there is no question that mega corporations like Monsanto are able to wield enough power to even surpass that of the United States government."

Hunger is the result of Ronald Reagan and the Republican Contract On America, which shifted the wealth from the majority, to the top 1%. If you'd studied history, you would not have made such an off-the-mark comment.
