If the port truckers form a union, how does that effect the OWS movement? Are you implying that they are going to make a union and then go on strike in order to disrupt shipping into the west coast as a form of showing solidarity with the OWS? That can't be what you mean.

Umm no, the topic was OWS. You made a jibe stating the republicans caused the banking crisis. I pointed out that Clinton signed the bill. You then kept the cart going off the path of the topic. I stopped it and won't respond to your off topic remarks.

Like I said, the worshipers of authoritrianism refuse to criticize their corporate masters. That's the only pay (their own) that they're concerned with.

So you don't think begging the government to make people pay for your liberal arts degree is a form of statist authoritarianism?

No.. No... NO!

He wants someone to get off the topic of how selfish he is for the OWS goals that he will sacrifice the well being of middle class truckers who aren't getting paid because of the OWS shenanigans..... he has STILL refused to address the topic of the unpayed truckers sitting outside of a blocked off port who need that money to support their families and they aren't going to get it because of the OWS "agenda".
 
What about the products that aren't going to get to stores to be sold by a salesman to make his/her living. OWS was way off the mark by obstructing the ports. They need someone to direct and organize them.

Fact...Clinton couldn't veto the bill because it passed with more than a 2/3 vote.
Fact...It's the rightwing who supports deregulation, not the left.

Fact...Yes Clinton still could have not singed the bill if he didn't want to sing the bill.The fact it was passed with 2/3 vote just means they had enough votes to override Clinton's veto and passed it without Clinton signing the bill.

Don't try that.

FACT...Alan Greenspan and Bill Clinton dismantled the 1933 Glass-Steagall Act.
FACT...President Bill Clinton signed legislation that removed barriers between banking, securities and insurance companies. Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act (aka Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999) signed on Nov 12, 1999
