2. What about removing limitations on child labor?
And why employ women at all? or those over 40?

33. The "Georgia Works" model, I hear that is popular with the Administration
If Georgia likes the idea it must be good.

6. Seriously, is this for real?
If it is, we just finished circling the bowl and are now headed through the U-trap as a society. And don't worry, Tony "the Big Fish" Scalia has an opinion repealing the Emancipation Proclamation in his office vault. Count on it.

11. I guess repealing all environmental protection laws couldn't fit on the screen?
:wtf:

These people really do yearn for the "good old days" when you could literally OWN other human beings, don't they?

22. well you don't need to hire any non WASPs
and it creates a lot of jobs for the kind of people that vote Republican. A horrible mentality to have, but no doubt the mentality of the person their list was hoping to appeal to.

36. But wouldn't they have to pay white people more?
I would think they would want to fill up their factories with minorities and pay them well below minimum wage...They want white people to have good jobs with good pay so they can look and be superior....The driving force behind Republicans is their belief in their superiority. They know all the answers all the time and should never be questioned about anything...They do not want to EVER negotiate with anyone...They want to Dictate..It is their Authoritarian manner.

14. Hell, let's just cut to the chase: re-legalize indentured servitude! Jobs, baby!!!
This really is like an alternate universe in which the world's most dangerous and idiotic ideas aren't only entertained as "serious" but are now - holding back the vomit - considered. WTF America?

18. I have been reading about China. They are now providing health care,
raising the minimum wage, and encouraging the growth of unions. If they are not already, they will soon be #1.

21. As if these are facts.
I love how they mock up this shit. They don't even do the "Some say X" anymore. They just list their masturbation fantasies as real.

41. I agree with each of those provisions.
But only if Fox implements them on every employee they have first.


I'd give them one week before collapsing due to no one showing up for work.
