Oh, I wanted to add to my post #400:

Anyone who tries to reduce the effective value of the wages that I have worked so hard to improve throughout my life, is an enemy of mine. And I will fight them in any way that I can.

Let me spell that out for you. If you, and other socialists like you, are successful in getting minimum wages increased, you will at the same time increase the cost of manufacturing almost everything. The prices of almost everything will increase accordingly. This means that my wages will not be able to purchase as many goods and services. This will be a disincentive to anyone who wanted to follow in my footsteps of improving my skills, knowledge, and training.

I don't want to live in that communist hellhole, and I don't believe that you do either--if you only were intellectually honest with yourself.

Well, prepare yourself for a fight. I don't give a rat's ass about minimum wages. I want our Barbie Doll jobs back. They would have paid slightly more than what the minimum wage is now. But no, they all went to China so little girls could have a whole roomful of cheap Barbie dolls.

I'm going to see what I can do to help out those people on the website that is the topic of this post. But first I intend to do some more research on how Wal Mart has treated their employees around the country. They don't sound like they are much into compensation for people injured on the job.

They don't sound like socialists over there to me, but they do sound like Democrats. They care about America and American jobs. My first question will be if there are any Republicans or independents working with them.

I think Wal Mart is starting to run a little scared. They have been getting some bad pr.

Now I don't wish to talk to you any more either.

So you must be a ferocious enemy of free trade and outsourcing!
