"We rarely hear, it has been said, of the combinations of masters, though frequently of those of the workman. But whoever imagines, upon this account, that masters rarely combine, is as ignorant of the world as of the subject." -- Adam Smith

But then again, the Repugs would rather peasants get angry at other peasants than the real culprits (the cartels).

"Our merchants and master-manufacturers complain much of the bad effects of high wages in raising the price, and thereby lessening the sale of their good both at home and abroad. They say nothing concerning the bad effects of high profits. They are silent with regard to the pernicious effects of their own gains. They complain only of those of other people." -- Adam Smith

Stupid republicans made the state broke to begin with.

And corporations exist only to make money-they happen to employ people while doing so. But when people get in the way, they cut them so they can keep making money.

Corporations are government entities with "No Body to throw in prison and no soul to save."

Corporations are only allowed to do 1 thing: Make Money.

If you knew a person like that, what would you call him? (hint: psychopath/sociopath)

Do those add depth to your little answers?

What is "great"? Kick ass? Effective at stopping war, particularly defensive wars (ie fought in the US).

Our military, in many ways, are the thugs of our federal governement. When our governement can't convince someone to "play nice" or to "do what we ask them to do" we send our military over there to rough them up (see Hussein, Afghanistan, Barbary Coast [Tripoli], South America-many places).

Tax is never the answer, especially taxing rich boss or corporations. You tax the boss, boss cut pays (or benifits) to employees to preserve his/her income, You tax corporations, they move to China. so what's the next move?

How many California corporations moved their jobs to China? How many california's rish people moved their homes to tax free states, or Bahamas?

So what's our next move?

Unemployement is on the rise in California. What do we do? Slash the safety net that those people paid into for most of there lives and lay people off driving unemployment up further.

I get it republican principle less government but holding the budget hostege with minority power will only get that power taken away. Its there so a compromise must be made.

New Republican Party - pure ideology with a 15% party id.

Our military is great
