I do not like government intervention. My business is suffering as a result of Government intervention by allowing the flooding of the market with cheap labor.

I'm troubled with the content of this post (and others too numerous to mention) for a variety of reasons.

To begin, I'm unsure when it happened, but many folks in the United States, have begun to feel some sort of entitlement to work, as if it is their right as a citizen to be employed. This, unfortunately, is entirely anti-capitalistic and the exact sort of thinking that created fat government programs like unemployment and welfare.

Second: You can't find work, sorry. I'm unsympathetic. There are other suppliers that are willing to supply their labor at a cheaper price. Deal with it. This is capitalism at work. This is what made America an economic superpower. As a true capitalist, I feel the government should have absolutely no restrictions on labor. If a foreign immigrant from Taiwan wants my job and is willing to do an effective job at half my salary, I fully expect my employer to fire me and hire the immigrant.

I want only what I deserve, and nothing more. Not only do I not want charity, I view those people, such as you, that demand charitable hand outs as a matter of right to be one of the most subversive and damaging influences to America today. It's the people that claim to be conservative that undermine everything for which conservatism stands. This is the reasons why the Right Wing has been split into factions too splintered and numerous to ever reconcile.

That sad lot is that the hard-hearted capitalists and advocates of greed and reason--the people that truly made America the greatest Nation on this Earth--have been replaced with feel good whiners who claim to be conversative capitalists but complain when the competition gets the best of them and wishes other taxpayers to subsidize their income.

I know you don't like me. I know you hate me. I don't mind. I don't seek to communicate to people like you. You are beyond help and reason. I seek to reach the people that have yet to be sucked into the self-created void socialism and "entitlement." They are out there, and they do not need to be won, but merely identified.

>>To begin, I'm unsure when it happened, but many folks in the United States, have begun to feel some sort of entitlement to work, as if it is their right as a citizen to be employed.

The right to work is a GOD given right my friend, not a capitalistic right.

>>Second: You can't find work, sorry. I'm unsympathetic. There are other suppliers that are willing to supply their labor at a cheaper price. Deal with it.

It's not an open bid situation. I'd work as cheap as an H1 if given the chance. Get the point?

>>, that demand charitable hand outs as a matter of right to be one of the most subversive and damaging influences to America today.

Ok a@@hole, get this:
1. I do not collect unemployment compensation.
2. I've been self employed for 3 years now. I AM PART OF WHAT MAKES THIS COUNTRY.
3. I have no health insurance for my family and REFUSE to go on medicade/medicare because it isn't the States responsibity. Health insurance in NY is outrageous for small groups/individuals (Blue Cross wants $1700 a month for a decent family plan.) I'll just have to pay cash for services or get billed for medical services. So, no, I'm not looking for handouts or charity.

I, a@@hole, am not taking from others pockets. So take that and stick it where the sun doesn't shine.

>>You are beyond help and reason.

You are the one who is unreasonable here. Nobody is promoting entitlements. Well, you are entitling yourself to speak for a@@holes I would say.

"If a foreign immigrant from Taiwan wants my job and is willing to do an effective job at half my salary, I fully expect my employer to fire me and hire the immigrant."

So, by your reasoning, Americans should be willing to drop their standards of living to the same level as Indians/Pakis/Indonesians, etc. who have spent their lives sleeping on dirt floors, just to stay competitive? Sorry, pal, that ain't gonna happen. We'll grab the proverbial torches and pitchforks and march on D.C. first. Don't get in our way.

P.S. What's up with that sissy-ass French screen name?
