I don't understand why conservatives and right wingers are always the ones going on blowhardedly about honest work and responsibility when clearly their sympathy is with the investors and slavedrivers and not the working man/woman. On one hand they go and say that working for a living is so great but then when people demand a living wage they curse them and call them entitled queens when they're forced to accept welfare to feed their family because the employers have such a house advantage over their workers thanks to nearly three and a half decades of neoliberal rule. It doesn't make any sense at all to me.

Well, first, why not tell us why you think a livable wage is?

Then if you feel like it, go ahead and explain each other sentence...because you have provided nothing but your opinion.....It doesn't make any sense...

The wealth gap has grown to record proportions the last 6 years.

Nobody comes out ahead when the investors are gave trillions and the lower classes are gave a couple dollars an hour.

Oh this should be fun to watch.

He's asking an opinion, and in some ways he is right, the Conservatives do seem very pro business and anti labor sorts.

No, the government is very pro-investor class.

No one is in business to give you a job.

They are in business to make money......jobs are a great byproduct of that.

House advantage???.....It is their business their house.

Conservatives and right-wingers are simply wrong about everything.

Welfare, job creation, tax cuts, all of it.

"Welfare queens" is the divide and conquer strategy first devised by Nixon, popularized by St. Reagan. Welfare Queen is supposed to represent a black woman robbing the good ol' white man from a hard day of work.

Most people on welfare are white. The country with the largest amount of welfare recipients is Oswley County, Kentucky. It is 99% White and 95% Republican. Surprise

How ironic. Your entire post is ridiculous and delusional, while you accuse those who disagree with your stupidity as "simply wrong about everything."

Thanks for the laugh!

Let me guess, you voted for Obama twice. 'Nuff said.
