[consulting] American Labour Laws & Future of Labour

[Alex Urevick-Ackelsberg]

You're right, it is amazing. So, which socialist institution shall we
dismantle first? Social Security ('let them eat dog food')? Medicare and
Medicaid  (stupid poor people shouldn't get sick- idiots)? Our Armed Forces
& the VA (The market shall protect those who can afford protection, and HMOs
can take care of our wounded vets, like they take care of the 40 million +
Americans w/out healthcare)?

Thank god we haven't let our amazingly efficient and cost-effective health
care system become taken over by the socialist fascist!Next thing you know
people will be free to choose a job of their liking (or create their own),
rather than having to maintain your job simply to maintain healthcare. And
then just imagine the crazy stuff they'll come up with!  Every day, for the
year or so that I went without healthcare (no insurer would insure me bc of
asthma and a history of back problems), I was comforted by the fact that
those darned socialist bastards couldn't get their hands on our US
Healthcare system. Sure, I couldn't get my meds, and a simple accident would
have led me directly into bankruptcy court, but... Ayn Rand! Milton
Friedman! The Divine Hand of the Free Market! Halleluyah, praise to the one
and only (ME!).

Nothing gets you motivated to make money like going bankrupt because your
kid got sick! That'll teach that silly child to pull him/herself up from his
shoelaces (assuming he/she can afford it) and get working!

Forget about the 'common good', I'm gonna get mine and the rest of you
stupid 'mericans can go eat a... cake! You can call it selfish, you can call
it heartless, you can even go so far as to say I lack any sense of
patriotism or human compassion, but I call it "rugged individualism" and I
love me/it!

To put it simply: ME! ME! ME! MMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
