The government can control the employers because, as a rule, they are responsible when it comes to money...otherwise they wouldn't be employers for very long. If everyone got their greedy little paws on ALL of their money, the majority of it would be pissed away and the government wouldn't have the manpower to collect even what was left.

Employers are responsible when it comes to money???

Didn't we have to bail out a bunch of 'employers' a while back?

I got news for you... Employers are people just like anyone else. Some are responsible and some are not.

We didn't have to, but we did.
Keep bailing them out and they'll be less and less responsible when it comes to money, just like kids.

Now there's something we can agree on.

Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha.......Man is THAT a hoot! I'd have to agree that irresponsible business owners won't be in business long, though. That explains why so many businesses go down the toilet. Of, course when you ask these failed business owners if their failures were their fault-----it NEVER is. It's always their workers, or the government, their customers, space aliens, he who walks behind the rows, suppliers, the queers, the Great Horned One..............anyone and everyone except the dumbass who really ran the place down the toilet.

And, I wonder who THAT could be?

I recall a story told to me by a coworker whose Uncle made several attempts at starting his own company in North Carolina in the 1960s-1970s.

I was told, "Everywhere he went, it wouldn't be long before the f*****s would try to unionize on him. They just didn't appreciate him creating jobs at all. He would come into town, open up shop, hire some people and the next thing you know the m****r f****rs are passin' around cards and holding meetings!"

"Is he an asshole?"

"Who?"

"This uncle of yours. Is he an asshole?"

"Well, he can be pushy and demanding at times..........."

"Would YOU want to work for him?"

"Hell no. But, what's that got to do with it?"

"I dunno, man. Just askin'."
