[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1112141, member: 12508"] You are a serious example of self-contradiction. The GOP is the party of the [I]individual, [/I]and FedEx (especially Ground) is a prime example of Tea Party Principles in action. It's Fred's company, so he gets all the profits...simple. Even if you and I help generate profits far in excess of what we are paid, that's too bad because we aren't entrepreneurial enough and Fred still gets it all. Ground is even "better", because it allows "entrepreneurs" to bloom and is an example of the American Dream at-work. Too bad that the dream depends on indentured servitude and a government-subidized workforce. "Life will never be the same" because the middle class is being destroyed, by precisely the people you support. Boehner, McConnell, and the rest are just fine with a world where the Smiths make the rules, pay crap wages, and have all the advantages. Too bad if you the worker cannot make ends meet, because that's just the new reality, where workers accept the wages they are given, have zero bargaining power, and work for far less than what they are truly worth. FedEx is a prime example of this, at all of the opcos. GOP tax cuts have done far more for the upper classes than the rest of us. The deficit has much of it's origins in "job creators" who don't pay their fair share, and actually pay way less than a fair share due to write-offs. Fred is always moaning about "high corporate taxes" when Fedex pays nowhere near the figures he cites. Maybe we can frack our way to prosperity and energy independence, but at what cost? I guess it doesn't bother you that toxic chemical are being injected into aquifers and that areas that have seldom if ever experienced earthquakes are now seeing them regularly? It's pretty clear that fracking messes-up the underlying structures of the regional geology. You want better wages, and support a union, neither of which are consistent with GOP principles. Attacking public employee unions, teacher unions, and unions in general is the way Republicans play the game. They don't want higher worker wages, collective bargaining, or anything else that hurts profit, which should all go to the business owner anyway. Smith was seriously mentioned as a possible Romney VP running mate, which would have made the TP very happy, because Romney wasn't conservative enough for them...Smith was. How can you support the party that is your oppressor? It's like you have Stockholm syndrome as you waver back and forth between wanting a better life and supporting your "captor". This is a debate, not an attack, and I hope you view it in that light. [/QUOTE]
