  1. DH,
    you would have fit right in during late 19th, early 20th century.

    It’s funny how so many fake liberals / closet social Darwinists there are. I consider myself moderatley libertarian/conservative and the lack of respect for working men and woman here is shocking to me.

  2. “NO ONE IS STOPPING THE YANKEES THIS YEAR!”

    NOW you go it, fsrg! A week ago you told me to keep quiet about the Yankees’ roll to the championship, worrying about a jinx. Screw that sh!t!! The Yanks are going ALL the way, man! Five more wins to the championship!!

    Yeah, the Phillies did OK, Dave. You were right, they got to the series. But it’s the end of the road now. No repeat. The Foolies won’t survive a tangle with the Yanks.

  3. Bxgrl, I am glad that we agree on this and I agree with all of the points above you made as well.

    “But how many people would respect an electrician’s work or think he should earn what a surgeon does?”

    Oh come on now, one wires the house the other one SAVES your life. What’s more important here? I respect both but I’ll be the first to say that I respect a surgeon more and think he deserves WAY more money. That’s someone who deals with human life day in and out. Electrician can cut corners and get away with it, surgeon cannot. Can you rewire a house (given you are an experienced electrician) after a night of getting hammered with friends? YES. Can you reattach nerves in a spinal fusion surgery after the same night? ish don’t think so.

  4. DH- not trying to say all CEOs and corporations are corrupt- they aren’t. Just using examples to show it isn’t all on the unions. This discussion was heavily skewed toward blaming the unions for all our economic problems. It’s my creatively professional way of promoting abuse for all 🙂
