[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 921455, member: 22662"] Hell, Island. My business at Fedex Ground is a corporation. I get all kinds of breaks and protections out of incorporation. I wouldn't do business any other way. I see nothing evil about corporations or capitalism as long they are not above the law. I see nothing wrong with corporations being expected to pay for the security and well being they receive from being in the US. I see nothing wrong with corporations having a "voice" but why should it be amplified above others to the tune of billions of dollars? It's a question of fairness. I am quite certain that I am on the side of what is fair in this debate, but don't fool yourself. I am about the business of making money. If ultimately it is determined that all regulation should be scrapped and minimum wage completely market driven, I will take advantage. I will lick my chops at getting drivers at not 1/3 the cost UPS pays but at 1/5. I will gladly abuse the American worker if they continue to be foolish enough to buy into the Ayn Rand line of BS. If Americans insist that there is a ruling class and a worker class, bbsam will shrug and play along. If the working people of this country think so little of themselves as to allow me to drive my boot of oppression on their patriotic song singing necks, I will oblige. In a democracy, the people determine what is fair. If that is their decision, so be it. If they believe it because Fedex, GE, UPS, Toyota, State Farm, and all of Wall Street say it's so, well, game on. You believe in the myth of the pusillanimous liberal. Ok. Release capitalism to do what it does. I am superbly situated to ride that dragon. Just don't come crying to me because you don't like where you end up because in that scenario, UPS does not stay the company it is today. [/QUOTE]
