Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Well, thatâs three things this anti-PC, pro-capitalism comics fan agrees with.
Now if Michele would just distance herself from the anti-evolution, anti-womenâs-rights nut-jobs, I could forgive her for not being that bright.
(Neither was Reagan, but he was smart enough to gather a circle of smart people around him so he didnât have to do all the thinking. Plus, unfortunately, he attracted some un-thinking religious-right nut-jobs, which is why I switched to Independent and have never gone back. Think Adam and Eve rode around on dinosaurs? Then Sarahâs your girl.)
Comments, anyone? But based on past experience, nobody reads Sylvia for the politics.
Yes, minimum wage has made finding entry level positions for unskilled labor extremely difficult. Unemployment for teenagers and black men is over 50%. (Why so many black men are competing for unskilled labor is another issue.)My position on illegal aliens makes me a pariah on both sides: âstop letting the ACLU set quotasâ. Give out as many work visas as you can process. No amnesty for the ones here illegally â let âem go back across the border and get a visa to come back in.âWeâre running out of rich people" is a great soundbite and so true. But I can kind of understand the mindset that wants to tax the rich. What seems so incredibly stupid to me is âtax the corporationsâ. I guess it isnât obvious to a lot of people who pays corporate taxes (answer for liberals here: the customers). Corporate taxes are really only useful for penalizing products, like cigarette taxes to make smoking more expensive, or oil taxes to dampen demand for oil (taxes on oil are 30 times profits â it is so silly when people think oil company profits are what make gas prices high).While the 6000 year old earth idea is unbiblical and in conflict with direct observations, Iâll take the culture that believes that over Islamicists any day.
Running out of rich people? As long as rich people arenât running out of money, why is this a problem, Conservatives? Stuart, if corporations get human rights (ie, can donate to & support candidates with as much $ as they want to spend), they should pay human taxes at human rates, which they donât. Cultures may not be equal, but laws in America are supposed to be. Yeah, who needs minimum wage laws when the Republicans et al want to create a class of serfs to work on their estates and plantations while they send skilled jobs overseas. You people should be ashamed of yourselves.
Go read a little Studs Terkel, learn a little labor history, read de Tocquevilleâs âDemocracy in AmericaââŠand then shut up.
