Mitt Romney likes being able to fire people. So, why not firemen?
Are fire fighters over employed as a percentage of the public compared with the past? If not, they are OK.
The average government employee was 1-100 decades ago as a percentage of the population. Today they are 1 - 9.
So one out of nine is on government employment. One out of three is going to be on SS. One out of fifteen are on disability. One out of four is on food stamps..... 20% are either unemployed or underemplyed.
OK SO MANY WANT A PROGRAM, OVER PAID EMPLOYMENT, WELFARE, DISABILITY, MEDICAL, FOOD, HOUSING AND TOILET PAPER....
HOW THE HELL CAN WE PAY FOR ALL OF THIS? WE ARE SINKING AND NOBODY WANTS TO KNOW THE TRUTH.
Truth, we need to fire about 90% of government employees back to the private sector so they are at levels they were before politicians were paid to employ them. We need to mostly limit social programs to the elderly and the disabled, that is it!
How many of you cheapskates are willing to run into burning buildings to save strangers?
Why are you so damn upset if someone makes a good living outside of your sacred commerce? It seems you believe everyone has to work at minimum salary to make an investor wealthy. You have no tolerance for people that do not want to play your game with your ball and your rules.
You are just another group of would be tyrants using dollars instead of guns to control the many for the profit of the few.
LOL! I worked with a fireman who was afraid of heights and could not climb ladders. What's worse is that the business that I worked with him in was housepainting.
Lol... so no firemen should have kids? You're the epitome of someone who spits ideology w/o considering the real world implications. Imagine that... a world where no fireman ever raises a family...
That's what you got out of my post? A FIREMAN not having children? It has nothing to do with FIREMEN. It just happens that the subject IS a fireman. The point is that he shouldn't be crowing about not being able to afford a two bedroom apartment when he's already made the decision to procreate without adequate funding to care for his irresponsibility.
It's called family planning and personal responsibility. Embrace it.
Only millionaires should have kids. And five sons would be a good family size. Especially when none of them (or their dad) would ever spend a day serving in the military, but all are eager to start a war with Iran.
Please note the Emperor Nero owned the fire department in Ancient Rome. Remember how well that worked out.
Of course Firemen, nor anyone that cannot afford it, should not have children. Children are the ultimate luxury good that should only be available as a reward to the privileged that can afford them. This would make certain the society would be composed of legitimate rulers and slave bastards.
explains their allegiance to China- mart.
Romney would make a good Nero, now you mention it. .
Throw the surplus humans off the cliffs

Look...
I don't think Romney is intentionally cruel. He's tone deaf to the struggles of anyone less privileged (i.e. dog on roof). But he seems to think that each of us little people made a terrible mistake by not being born into a family of multimillionaires like he was able to arrange for himself.
