"Those friends that work at Lockheed Martin in Ft. Worth are being protected from their own short sightedness"


You see, that's where you and I differ JTS.

I don't believe that the government is there to protect us from ourselves.

This is a message of yours from another thread....

"Its NOT the role of the government to be everyone's employer....an even FURTHER EROSION of our rights. Look up the definition of 'tyranny',

It's not the governments role to give other people money to be employers either. Nor does either erode your rights. Eroding your rights is Bush's job. I know the definition of tyranny. It doesn't include giving someone money to paint a mural, dig a ditch or write a song."

So you're saying that even though it's not govt's position to be our employeer or better yet to give other people money to be our employeer it's still ok for them to tell the working man to give a "union" our money so that we won't suffer from our own "short-sightedness".

Please tell me that's not what you mean.

Besides the fact that it looks as if you're talking out of both sides of your mouth, it's pretty scary to think that a gov't who you place so much distrust in can be your savior as well.


YES!!
