Fair And Living Wages And Workers' Rights Too Socialistic

[TheMastersNemesis]

The brutal truth is that in the eyes of American business and the GOP fair living wages, workers' rights and economic justice are too socialist for America. Sharing the wealth with the workers who really create it is NOT the American way.

1. It's not even an issue of socialism, that's just a boogey man for the masses...

The dollars that go into paychecks are just an expense that reduces profits. In their minds those dollars belong to the one percenters and they are outraged that workers are trying to rob them of their money.

2. Exactly! And if you say that people aren't making enough money, the RW answer is "Well, they're free

to go find a better-paying job." It's never a question of the business owner being at fault for paying poorly. Ever.

3. I blame Democrats more than Rethugs..

I expect it of rethugs, Dems have abandoned labor, and are the party who is supposed to care about labor...now they are just taking orders from big business just like the thugs..the labor party is dead..

4. They used to be the party of small business as well. Now it's the party of shell

companies, out-sourcers, and temp agencies. They refuse to enforce labor laws or anti-trust laws.

5. How dare you!

Everyone knows that the repuks do 95% of corporate bidding whereas the Dems only do 93% of it... LOL

6. Been that way since Reagan and the useful idiots who voted for him

7. That's because we are dealing

with a republican voting block that flunked sharing in kindergarten. I really think this basic concept was somehow lost on them. You have a crayon, your fellow citizen doesn't, you break a piece off and hand it to them.
