Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

Health care is not a national resource, it is the fruit of someone's labor.

Are there any natural resources that are not extracted by the fruit of someone's labor?

It's funny watching you appeal to labor to defend Capitalism, lol.

Good question.

The current system is utterly useless in the way they run things.

The proposed way is questionable.

Maybe we should just flip a coin. Either way, we are screwed.

I am NOT responsible for your well being.. Take some responsibility in your own destiny for goodness sakes..
shoveling the blame to the poor is the cowards way out...

the poor did not decide to plunder their own pockets with the "efficiency" of monocrop dependency, that was decided for them.

and as in history when the potato, wheat, and turnip failed... so too will the corn crop... and when it does... the poor as always will pay the price for allowing the wealthy to control the outcomes of their lives... followed by the usual restructuring of greedy faces so the cycle can repeat.

everybody in my opinion does what they think is best for them... unfortunately they do this daily never seeing what is coming next week, year, or decade... things progressively delapidate until hindsight focuses and then the peasants storm the castle wall looking for the next savior...

it will always come down to the have's and have not's... in the end the havenot's will rise up and destroy the have's...

it isn't my rule... its just a rule and how it works... unless the have's are smart enough to know the other rule...

steal all you want... step on whomever you want... just be sure to keep the peasants belly's full... a full belly doesn't buy true loyalty but it does buy apathy... which is all the rich really care to purchase from you.

NO resource is extracted by "the fruit" of labor.
Labor and the fruit of are two (2)entirely dufferent things. Fruit is what is produced BY labor and it is PRIVATE PROPERTY as it "individual (private CITIZEN)effort". NOT a PUBLIC SERVANT.
