Ask Barack Obama one question

Look at their crazy **** of the past: social security, Medicare, anti-lynching laws, unemployment insurance, workers comp, the right to organize, civil rights laws, enviornmental legislation, equal pay laws... Things can only get worse in the future if liberals are in charge. The carnage will continue.

Too bad I disagree with those things.

Though I do agree that workers have a right to association, but I don't agree they have a right to anything from the employer because of it.

Are you the moderator of this thread, volsrock? You're the one who asked 'why do you hate America', Obama ?
 
Why did you think it was right to force everyone take part in commerce?

So they can associate, but can't demand a raise or an improvement in working conditions? You would therefore repeal all labor laws that have any effect? Workers can associate, but only for tea after work... Sounds like the Soviet Union... Stalin would be proud.

And I assume you personally would refuse to collect unemployment if laid off, or not accept worker's comp if you lost a leg due to an unsafe machine. After all, you should have conducted tests on the machine before you started work... Irresponsible worker, you!

They can demand anything they want. The point is that just because someone decides to associate does not mean anyone has to associate with them or give them what they want.

How is that a Trump insult Sir NIMBY?

I can't think of a question of any substance that I'm interested in, so I won't post it any trivial ones, but I would love to hang out with him. I always liked him as a person and think he'd be a fun person.

You are absolutely correct... That's why we have strikes.

So why can't employers fire strikers for any reason?

They do thanks to republicans. Republicans only believe in tax breaks for the wealthy and corporate welfare.

Then why are you here if you have no questions, holbritter ?

They don't actually. They should however since it's an association right.
 
On holidays and other special occasions, what was your favorite food you can remember wishing for as a little kid growing up?
 
Why did you claim in October that there was no way the election could be rigged, then Trump wins and all of a sudden, the Russians rigged it?

Because I was interested. Some good questions I wish I had thought of.
 
If Obamacare is so wonderful, why are all members of Congress exempt from it, and why do none of them sign up for it?
 
hey Mr. Obama, how did it feel when you walked into the White House after George W. Bush left you such a ****ing mess to clean up; was it pretty scary knowing you had to stay in a 'fixer upper' and the rain was coming thru the roof 24/7/365?

I don't think you understand what Obamacare actually does.
