labor

 

 

By Rick Richbourg

“The history of all hither to existing society is the history of the class struggles”; so say Marx and Engels in The Communist Manifesto.

And, what we see playing out in Wisconsin and maybe in your state capitol in 2011 is the quintessential battle over – who owns your labor!

Apparently the public sector unions in Wisconsin think it’s a great idea to make a claim on your labor. Moreover, they seemingly don’t want you to have a say in how big a stake they can claim!

The idea that anyone – other than you – owns your labor is antithetical to the unalienable rights granted to all by our Creator and is in direct odds with the fundamental cornerstones of our republic.

Yes, for thousands of years the normal state for mankind is to live subjugated in oppression by a pharaoh, emperor, Caesar, Kaiser, czar or despot. However, for the very briefest of time in all of human history the citizens of these United States of America have been allowed to live in a relative state of liberty and freedom allowed to purse the aims of their own happiness.

Yet, those seeking to make a claim on your labor do NOT create a way forward to a new social order or even dispense social justice! Instead, they seek to return us all to the thousand year default of tyranny! Those making claim on your labor make a claim on you – enslaving you to their purpose not your own.

War On Women Can Be Fought At The Polls

By Kim Carroll

Women have the power. They take their right to vote seriously and show up at the polls in greater numbers than men according to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University.

In 2008, 60.4 percent of eligible female voters cast their vote versus 55.7% of eligible males. According to the same study, more women are registered to vote than men, 66.6 million versus 63.5 million. Maybe that’s why the “War on Women” has taken a front seat in this election…

The Interest Bomb Is Ticking

By: George Noga

This post kicks off a three-part series about the crisis of spending, debt and deficits.

The next part deals with the interval between now and the inevitable arrival of the Minsky Moment, i.e. the unknown and unknowable time when an unsustainable economic phenomenon suddenly collapses.

The third post will address Gotterdammerung, or what happens after the Minsky Moment.

Is Mack Campaign Getting Desperate?

By Tom Tillison

It’s a fair guess that Connie Mack has seen some recent polling that has gotten his attention.

As the week closed out, the rhetoric coming from the Mack campaign took on a rather fervent pitch. In a press release sent out Thursday, it made the claim that opponent George LeMieux has “endorsed raising Florida’s sales tax to a nation-leading 16 percent.”

Obama’s IPAB Death Panels Limit More Than Just Health Care Access

By L. Persona

Florida Democrats believe they can win a few Republican seats in Congress and are preparing a major offensive against several Republicans facing tough challenges this year. They believe that redistricting gives them a chance to offset the seats they are sure to give up.

However, the Democrats still fail to realize the albatross that ObamaCare places on their party’s efforts…

A Black Guy At The Dallas, TX Tea Party Rally

By Lloyd Marcus

A big well dressed black guy attended the Dallas, TX tea party rally with his white buddy. Both men missed my singing performance on stage minutes earlier.

I asked the black gentleman who had an impressive physique how often he worked out. He replied, “Everyday.” His white buddy said with a chuckle, “He thinks the Tea Party is racist.”
