Giga, I did read. Im just wondering how you feel about the topic. Do you think it\'s a smart thing what Bush is doing. Even though it doesn\'t affect you, like vid, im just wondering if you think it\'s a good or bad idea...

Vid if you were not being sarcastic, as of now i\'ll take any job offer. Except homosexual acts....just in case any of you try to crack a joke. I\'ve applied everywhere. Kroger, walmart, just for feet, fast lane, amc, big lots, even dollar general. Im thinking that in the end im going to have to end up working with my uncle\'s company. Doing what every mexican might do sometime in their life, construction, putting up fences, mowing lawns for companies you know all that good stuff.
Don\'t try to confuse me with what you call  facts, my mind is already made up.

Does that get you off the hook so you don\'t have to state an opinion?  You\'re the GWB booster, so whether it affects you personally or not, you should have some kind of position on this.  Is this good or bad for our nation?

I think you know my opinion on it already... after all I am a capitalist pig so what do I care about hourly employees?

MM, you are sadly mistaken on your observation of overtime. I personally am hourly paid and I depend on overtime. I put in my 34.5 half hours a week and anything else is overtime and because of that, I can afford my bills with ease, instead of struggling back and forth.

I understand the premise of the idea is to make companies hire more people instead of workin\' someone to death, but in the process it could really hurt us who need the overtime pay.

In my humble opinion, this is another half- thought through idea by the Bush Admin. He needs to be out of office as soon as possible.

Probably b/c of the way you state your opinions and some of your past actions in here.

Wow, not even a ":rolleyes:" to go with that?  :laughing: Someone might think you\'re not joking.

I was hoping you\'d give more than your opinion.  I\'m not trying to attack you, just trying to find out how supporters of these policies explain them to others.

Typically it goes like this..

"Well, the Bush Admin proposed this idea..and well, it\'s the American way to like it...And if you don\'t, well you\'re just un-American.."

:D

Nah I didn\'t think you were attacking me... I just really couldn\'t care less about this issue.  It isn\'t because I like Bush that I didn\'t answer, but if you really want to know - if I was an hourly employee I would be against it without a doubt.  Any form of indentured servitude pisses me off, which is basically what working without overtime pay would be.

I don\'t think that\'s true, but I do find a lot of talk radio that way.  THere is a dude here in town that just blasts celebrities and what not for not 100% agreeing with Busch and making comments.


There is a lot of stuff I agree with Busch about and there is a lot I don\'t agree with.  The war on Iraq I completely agree with.  Some policy stuff well I\'m not 100% with.

I was half way being sarcastic, Video. Though, there are some people that would follow a blind man through a hurricane. So, I can\'t make fun of everyone for being Bush supporters. :)

Honestly though, I think no one should be forced to work over the regular 40 hour week and not be paid extra. It could be considered modern slavery, in my opinion.
