Why are you in favor of corporatism and against basic worker's rights? Why is it okay for the non-union bosses to sit in their mansions paid with the sweat off the minimum wage workers, while denying simple things such as lunch breaks like walmart? Big corporate masters use the tears of the struggling worker for lube. Silly right wingers.
What "basic workers' rights" are you referring to? Do you even realize how many labor laws are on the books now? Stop with the ridiculous hyperbole of the mansions and the minimum wage workers and not getting lunch breaks.
Btw, lunch breaks are NOT required by law except for minors, at least in the two states that I have lived and worked in, but I don't see how this is a big deal. If you don't like not getting a break, don't work for that company. In the food industry, nobody gets breaks, and in most retail places, you don't get a lunch if you don't work a certain number of hours that day. Why do we need to get a lunch break for working 4 or 5 hours? People are dumb as heck if they can't think to eat before work so they don't get hungry.
Why do people like you always assume that all wealthy people earned their money? Some do (and good for them) but Sam Walton's kids didn't. They also don't necessarily work harder than working class folks--something many conservatives forget.
Because MOST DO. Who are you to say whether they did or didn't? How do you know that Sam Walton's kids didn't work in the store and help him develop it into what it is today? You don't know so you shouldn't be talking.
Btw, it's not about working harder, it's about working smarter.

Actually, it's about the rich getting people like you to carry their water.
Instead of answering the actual question, you just engaged in ad hominem personal attacks; typical Neo Prog.
I'm feeling generous, so I'll give you another shot at it; what are "basic worker's rights?"
Whatever you wish them be, honey.
