See this is the exact tea party attitude. We can do better than having a sh%^& job that brings nothing but low quality of life but hey at least you get to eat. The rich and their ss wing the tea party need to stop being so greedy and have some empathy for other Americans. Or just tell the truth. Which is you are our wage slaves. You dont deserve a better quality of life because then I wouldnt be as rcih as possible so shut up and be glad you are alive.

I would rather die on feet than live on my knees. Said by many meant by few.

With a really good safety net I would have been able to stay in business long enough to make it work. I would gladly payed half my wages or profits for that net. I'll bet a lot of others would as well.

Check your pay stub. Between Federal, State, Local, SS, Medicare/'caid, sales taxes, and property taxes, you already pay a good fifty percent of your salary in taxes.

Why is it a tea party job? Because this is the vision that the tea party has for the workers of America. A Sukey job with no benefits and no chance to enjoy life. For the tea party this is great because at least the owner gets more and more and more money. Plus the owner and his family get vacation and time with each other. The non voting working class and the workers who vote for republicans are fools. They are nothing but wage slaves for the tea party elite.
I guess they learned from ACORN

I would rather have that "tea party job" than the Pelosi "stimulus" of an unemployment check.

This post holds no credibility to it. The premise is made up in order to fit the agenda of those who back the failed polices of big government.

Speaking of jobs, how is 8 percent unemployment working?

Thats right more people will try to start businesses for themselves once they are covered by HC not from their current company.

so what you are saying here is htat your family member is not working for the tea party and really isnt working a "tea party" job.

He is working for a boss that may or may not be a bad guy.

so what you are saying here is that your opening comment is a factual lie.


nice.
