Have you been this way all of your life?


First, Reggie, try to internalize the oft-stated fact that I don't give
a schitt about what you think, feel, or do.

Second, there is nothing inconsistent in believing President Obama with
the help of stronger Democratic majorities in Congress will work
assiduously to reverse the GOP horrors of the last eight years and
improve the quality of life for most Americans and our position in the
world *and* watching righties everywhere choke on their own bile.

I'll be glad to see us moving away from "traditional Republican values,"
such as lynching blacks, beating up gays, and Latinos, and keeping the
"little woman" barefoot, pregnant, and in servitude.- Hide quoted text -

Thunder, do you really believe the 'worker' has increased his output by
20%? Does that line make sense to you?
The fact that you read it in an anti-Bush article doesn't make it true.

As you are clearly too lazy to do your own search:

Let's see, 7 * 2.5 = 17.5 You could then extrapolate, considering it is
2008. So, yes, I do believe the 'worker' has increased his output by
20%, even though, I probably shouldn't believe anything that comes out of
the Bush government.


There is no way in the world the American worker of present day works
harder than the guy in my dad's day. I have been victim to being told
to slow down by a union. In all fairness (which we won't expect from
the other side) I was also told to slow down while on piece work at
Standadyne, a non union shop...



Gosh, you'd think someone with your party affiliation and your skills
would be running something.

Remember, they are the party of intolerance and hate.. This is what
you get with the "far left". Unfortunately, that tends to be the
majority of the party recently...

That's overall productivity, not an increase in productivity of
'workers'.


If I have an assembly line with 10 workers, I replace five with a
robot, and my output remains constant, does that mean the productivity
of the five remaining workers has increased by 100%? *Should I double
the pay of the remaining five workers?


If you believe that, then I can understand your anguish.


Well, seeing you are talking an assembly line, productivity in the
manufacturing sector was 26% between 2000-2007. *I'm well aware of what
"productivity" is, and I'm also quite aware that productivity has
increased, wages haven't kept up, which was the whole point of the first
link posted.


I'd also point out, that article was posted in reply to Just's statement
that "The lazy ones who won't work need the representation." *Well,
apparently, that's not true, now is it?


Have you ever noticed that liberals, when asked a specific question,
will ignore the question, change the subject, or resort to personal
insults - rather than answer the question.


Just's statement is very true. The article you posted had no bearing on
his statement, just as your comparison of productivity and wages has no
bearing on his statement.


Here, I'll ask again:


" If I have an assembly line with 10 workers, I replace five with a
robot,
*and my output remains constant, does that mean the productivity of the
*five remaining workers has increased by 100%? *Should I double the pay
*of the remaining five workers?"


Are you talking labor productivity? *Multifactor productivity? *What
productivity model? *Kurosawa? Gollop?


Widget productivity.

Jeeez.

Have you ever noticed that liberals, when asked a specific question,
will ignore the question, change the subject, or resort to personal
insults - rather than answer the question?

Goodbye. Going golfing. You've proven my point.

Not all of them. I'll take to task anyone who lumps ALL people of a
certain political belief into a very narrow group.

What a bunch of crap.. You should check out the articles of the gays
beating up old women in Cal after the passing of prop 8. The lies of
the left, the bombing of Sarah Palin's church.... I think you have
it backwards, it's the intolerant and elitist left that has turned to
militancy. Just like you, they are incompassionate haters and only
interested in self indulgence...

That's only a part of it, and you know that. *

The rich get richer, the poor get poorer.


You can't be classified as poor when you have a cellphone, cable TV and
two cars in the driveway.


Outstanding performers are taken care of, those who just show up and
do enough to get a paycheck should work for someone else.


Horse****!


Why. If a guy comes to work on your house which one do you want doing
the work? The outstanding performer or the guy who just kind of barely
gets it done, if it needs five nails he may only put in four but thats
ok it should hold just fine.


You have an assembly line, all your workers are keeping up, how do you
tell who is the "outstanding" worker?


Work in that line for a while then ask again... I have a union card, I
have worked for me and the lazy slob next to me who is protected by
the union... Some of those guys weren't worth 5 cents an hour...

As long as you are wasting your time and energy enjoying watching
righties everywhere choke on their own bile, you are losing
opportunities to do something productive.
