It's a nice thought, but it's not how sides are drawn up on this forum. In discussions in which the interests of the rich and business are pitted against those of the poor and middle class, the theme of the threads are invariably right vs. left.

The lefts claims that they represent the working class that they and they alone represent the Middle class and poor aren't substantiated with anything other than empty talking points.

Creating MORE poor and targeting the Middle Classes discretionary income via " bait and switch " legislation and policies that drive up energy cost and kill jobs isnt representation.

That doesn't address anything I said.
 
Well me I have never been offered a job by a rich person. The job offers that I got were from middle class people working for large corporations.


just who do you think owns those large corporations?
 
And the point that you are missing madame is that somebody has to do the work. There would be no rich people if there were not people to do the work and people to buy the products. Don't tell me you are a hen philosopher too. Tell me it ain't so.


hen philosopher....never heard that one until you said it a few posts earlier

of course, the company cant run in a lot of cases without the people that make it happen

but you act as if the people employed are more important than the ones that risked everything to build it from scratch

let me put it another way

"everyone is replaceable, except the owner"

i hope you understand that basic fact in every company.....

it may not be easy to replace some...hell it may be damn near impossible....but the only ones that cant be replaced are the owners

they can sell to someone else, who takes on their responsibilities....that happens all the time

but those responsibilities never go away.....
 
Other corporations


yep

Buffett is a great example

his empire is layered by companies owning companies

but eventually it always leads to people, or a person at the top

it may take a few layers to get there....but people own the businesses
 
what a compelling rebuttal. I'm sorry that you've apparently never heard of subsidiaries, institutional investing, or anything else apparently, for that matter..

And for that matter they are all owned by people. Maybe you can show me an unity that is not owned by a person.
 
And what country are you going to find that LIBERAL retirement?

You tell me. You are the one talking about liberal handouts and unlimited unemployment insurance.

Sounds like more hen philosophy to me.

They are liberal handouts you just want more, as all liberals want more and more.
 
so you dont understand basic business 101

got it

You say that, but then you make statements like this

everyone is replaceable, except the owner"

i hope you understand that basic fact in every company

That is hen philosophy.

The thing is this, you then contradict yourself without even knowing it by saying this

they can sell to someone else, who takes on their responsibilities....that happens all the time

:lamo

Any rate, like I said, you are a hen philosopher.
 
Why would you spend time thanking and helping people you distrust?

So you think troops serve for their self interest?

Also you canstick your assumptions.

Now we see the hate.
 
Dude, do you want a garment factory with 100 employees working on the fifth floor to have a single exit down a long hallway to a three foot wide stairwell. Are you in favor of health inspectors checking the restaurant kitchen to make sure expired food isn't being served, that the water is hot enough in the dishwasher. I could point you to examples all day, point is, you don't know it, but you do not want to live in a society that does not regulate and monitor business.

No I don't. But that's a typical lefty strawman. Capitalism and the circumstances that I tried to get you to reply to address those problems.
