They're always the ones harping about working hard and pulling your own weight and not being a drain, so why do they hate people who work and want them to have fewer rights? It's not even just public sector workers, they seem to think all workers have it too good. Doesn't make any sense to me.

Why would Republicans hate themselves?

My company has the right to fire me for any reason (except, you know). I have the right to quit for any reason (no exceptions).

Why do Democrats keep expanding the number of low skilled workers?

Default Why do Democrats hate their trades and Creative Class?

A 5,000,000-strong illegal immigrant stand-down concocted by the progressive leftist president and his advisors, that knowingly advances the North American Union and Cloward-Piven.

All while negotiating a Trans-Pacific Partnership treaty in absolute secrecy.

Probably one of the most ridiculous threads I have ever seen. Why would anyone disagree with the fact that I should support my family and I?

WHY should I expect someone else to work and support my family and I?

What fewer rights are you talking about? It's really easy to just pop off a silly comment like, "Why do all democrats expect that you cannot get anywhere on your own merit, and require them to force someone give you things?". It's an open ended broad statement with no specifics, just like the point of your thread.

What party is Barack Obama, the man who just flooded the labor market with illegal aliens, a member of? A higher percentage of Republicans have a 4 year degree than Democrats.

They like their high flying stock market and see the masses as cattle to fuel the purchase of their corvettes and multi million dollar properties.

Honestly I see no reason why anyone who supports the free market would have a problem with low wage people 'striking' or demanding higher wages. If they want to try to get $15/hour the worst that will happen is they get fired and the company hires someone else.

If more people demanded living wages maybe corporations wouldn't be paying $10/hour to do crap work. It's crazy what some of the local employers demand for the crap wages they pay around here. Given this I have no problem with factory workers especially fighting for something resembling a 'living' wage. They can close the plant and ship it to China if it's such an economic burden to them to pay $13-15 per hour.. don't need third world slave labor in the US. At this point in my life I wouldn't even take a $10/hour job. Same with my father who got laid off after 35 years at the same place.. not gonna settle for crap wages.

Lightbulb Why do Republicans hate workers so much?

Because we're little people without the resources to support bloated campaigns.

I oppose amnesty and most legal immigration to include HB-1 visas and most student visas because these are opportunities ambitious working Americans need.

Why would anyone who talks all that **** about caring about the working poor, the way Democrats do, want to increase the number of low-skilled workers by granting amnesty to illegals?
