Well if this is the case the President is making, that we're all part of business success, we should abolish salaries and go for percentage of profits instead.
Only seems fair..right ? Oh and you put in as many hours as needed to get the business off the ground.
Business fails to take off..well you now have to take as much risk as the owner which includes losses and out of pocket expenses.
Since everyone now becomes an "owner" we don't need unions, labor laws, etc.
True. I'm guessing that Obama supporters are 110% on board with commission only salaries and no minimum wage.
Yes Obama, there are a lot of people out there working hard and while some do succeed and others fail, there are also those who actually do work harder than others to get to where they are. But what would you know about that? You want everything to be "equal". And we all know while yes you are POTUS, just what the hell did you do that was so great in your life? What the hell were your accomplishments besides community organizing (aka telling others how they should run things, etc)? Youve done jack squat.
sorry for the italics, its locked for some reason
What a boneheaded statement.
America was BUILT on the pioneer and entrepreneurial spirit. He is wrong.
Government can't provide anything without first collecting taxes. Who does he think pays the taxes?
Why the workers all pay the taxes while the fat cat, profit making owners hide their money and don't pay their fair share. Haven't you been paying attention ?
Business owners are enjoying vast wealth built off the back of the workers. These owners get to keep their money while the workers pay taxes.
It just isn't FAIR I tell ya.
That is the propaganda being fed to Americans and with 60% receiving government money you can betcha they are buying it hook, line and sinker.
The government doesn't actually build them (or anything for that matter). They contract that work out to a PRIVATE COMPANY that already existed with that expertise and which has paid taxes in all sorts of ways.
About the only case of the government actually doing the work would be the Army Corps of Engineers building a dam or something. Even then, I don't think they do that anymore.

Economic socialism: the "collective" own the means of production.
The nature of business ownership cannot be stated more clearly than this ^.
