A unionized public employee, a Tea Partier and a CEO are seated at a meeting. In the middle of the table is a plate with a dozen cookies on it. When no one is watching the CEO reaches across, takes 11 cookies and slips them in a pocket. A bit later he looks at the tea partier and whispers, "Watch out for that union guy, he wants a piece of your cookie."
LOL Note the corporate tools don't get the joke nor the truth.
Curious how Americans go after Americans making close to fair wages, blaming them rather the military industrial complex that wastes billions, eventually trillions. Nineteen madmen did something billions of dollars in useless war hardware didn't stop, but the right wing tools only march to hurt fellow Americans. Can anyone really figure that out? If a corporate exectives makes millions and fails, the republicans bail them out, it was Bush who started tarp. But ask for a fair wage or even minimum wage and the conservatives are up in arms. What a bunch of wackos. The other night there was a piece on the fact most corporations pay no taxes, don't you think if sanity were anywhere to be found, you'd hear about this on conservative corporate owned media? Nah, instead Charlie Sheen and stupidity rule the airwaves.
"Something is profoundly wrong with the way we live today. For thirty years we have made a virtue out of the pursuit of material self-interest: indeed, this very pursuit now constitutes whatever remains of our sense of collective purpose. We know what things cost but have no idea what they are worth. We no longer ask of a judicial ruling or a legislative act: is it good? Is it fair? Is it just? Is it right? Will it help bring about a better society or a better world? Those used to be the political questions, even if they invited no easy answers. We must learn once again to pose them." Tony Judt 'Ill Fares the Land'
