Susu's Hubby.

You started the name calling.
You called me jealous.
I called you ignorant.

Please note that I am only calling you ignorant of economics and the history of the Labour movement and I have invited you to prove me wrong. I have invited you to inform yourself several times and all you have done is try to belittle me.

The Utopia is yours. You seem to have no idea about economics or human nature that is a pity. But certainly your faith in big business and market forces to take care of you is misguided and yes, ignorant. If it were not for unions and labor laws and a long history of people fighting and dying for the rights of people like you, you would have staved to death in the dark. My grandfather told me about the times he grew up in. I will tell you that I don't want to go back to the times of the company store. But people like you could make that happen. Because you don't want to take responsibility for the society you live in. You want to turn over all the power to institutions why, by definition, by their very design are fighting against your self interest.

As I said. It would be useful for everyone else, if you were allowed, even required to opt out of the protections you condemn. Do you own your own Hospital? Your own roads? Your own utilities? If not your interests lie with people. Not with corporations.
