Not a real news site.

So, you get told to suck it if you ask for a raise, but you have employees? Who are you asking for a raise? Why do you only pay them a third of what you make?

I say we as in we workers. like my husband, my kids, etc not we as in me personally. the suck it from people like you, who defend rich getting richer, and think it's ok for everyone else to fight over what's left.

and it's not a real news site? is the info correct tho?

Too much money in too few hands brought on the last depression. These few hands are now buying legislation that will further enrich them but it is all good since ole Bezos and Zuck made billions it means you also will since this is the land of opportunity. Funny how the retired folk think this is still the 70's where a degree and hard work was all you need. The bus doesnt stop rolling once they get off it. Their perspective is outdated. Thing was back in the day you layed off workers when things were going bad and hired people when things were going good. TOday you lay people off when things are going bad and out source jobs and lay people off when things are going good and then you simply change the way unemployment numbers are calculated so it all looks rosy to those that stop at the headline.

Who should decide how much an employee is paid?

You create a false climate crisis to destroy the nation's energy industry so you can enrich the backward nomads so they can have a small chance at a global caliphate.

You over-regulate every aspect of the average Americans lives to the point they mentally and physically submit to the state. You threaten their dependence and mold them into conforming parrots where they spread the failed message of socialism to the impoverished masses.

Socialism implemented. Millions die. Everything goes back to tribalism.

The weak-chinned cucks who cried when the wild animal was taken out of its natural habitat and put in a zoo raged and whined when others tried to prevent the wild animal from migrating to their neighborhood.

Whoda thunkit? Won't shed a tear.

what, are you Socrates answering questions with questions? why are you ok with what this has become?
for the longest time, if one had a job, one could make it. not anymore. who had the power to change that? I'd wager it's the one's reaping the rewards from how things are now, with an ever tilted field. bought and paid for by the very rich, enacted by their puppets, and defended by...old dog.

You seem to operate under the assumption that it's a closed system, with a finite amount of money.

Understand that the rich will always get richer. Money begets money. But your problem is with CEOs who you believe are overpaid. So, let's get to the meat of it. Who do you believe should decide how much money an employee should be paid for his or her services?

Actually, a lot of money is now in a closed loop system, the financial world.
As for who decides the pay. I would imagine it is the same who always decided. The issue is why did the pay get skewed? How do we repair that? How did it get as it is, from where it was? I already said, above, how that is.

Oh, is this supposed to be me, and you giving it a trophy? How clever of people who have not met me to attack in such a way. The misogyny is amazing. Cannot handle a woman who won't back down, so attack her looks. What next, rape comments?
By the way, i am a size six. Not big at all. Ask bob, he met me. Or steve, or brian spencer, or chuck.

Ok, old dog. Forget all that i wrote. You wont answer any of the questions anyway. So, one question very simple question.
Should what has occurred just be left alone and accepted?

You don't know who you are...so why should you garner an iota of respect?

If I recall correctly, you told all of us years ago that you leaned conservative.

Did you have a mentally debilitating stroke? Are you a paid shill and the original shill of your account retired?

I always had my doubts about your credibility. Mainly because I've never met a true conservative from Arclintonsas.

It is what it is. What do you think should be done about it? Get the government involved to regulate salaries, stock options and other forms of compensation? It does no good to bitch about what other people are paid, but if you're going to do it what's your "solution?"

I don't worry about what others are paid (unless I'm being smarmy). I am concerned with my compensation, and act accordingly. All of this talk by Bernie and other socialists about higher taxes on the rich (making them pay "their fair share") is just the politics of envy, and I have no time for it.

Steve should just rename this forum to "It is what it is" and shut the ****ing thing down for entry.. Save us from killing each other over stuff that simply "is what it is" and all our opining can't change.

Her response is going to be an unrelated, generalized tangent/tantrum from your specific point that is going to include a perceived attack against her (victim).

She can't logically answer your question, so she's going to go on about how no one knows her or what she thinks and that it is despicable / amazing that we only have Trump and Clintion to choose from, and yada yada yada ...snooze

Seen this movie before :(

What this doesn't tell you is the ones satisfied are subsidized. The workers don't like it.

Welfare queens absolutely love it. Why wouldn't they when the working class has to actually cover their deductibles and premiums.

If people weren't in fear of their livelihoods they would be rioting in the streets over this massive wealth redistribution.

Only a buffoon would support the ACA. It is absolutely indefensible.

If a buffoon likes the ACA cause it no longer allows insurance companies to collect from you for years and then boot you out when you actually get sick than I am one BIG ****ING Buffoon! If a buffoon likes the ACA cause if you get sick and lose your job you can't be turned down then I am one big ****ing Buffoon. Of course there are things you cited that I don't like but the 2 things I cite protect me and my family and are truly insurance. I sir am a big ****ing Buffoon and have been called much worse.

You're a habitual appeaser. They "throw you a crumb and you kill 100 people for the crumb" type mentality.

You won't get it. You never will. The ACA wouldn't exist without the constantly cowed such as yourself.

Congrats. You're "guaranteed" to not lose everything. Even though Hospitals are shutting down and merging and doctors are retiring at a record pace.

F.uck it. Just as long as they "guarantee" I won't go broke. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
