The company pays you in return for your work

@Cringing what's the root word in the word government

@dairypillows pays peanuts, especially compared to the big man on top

you're fucking retarded.

@CthulhuOnIce have you ever taken an accounting class?

When I go to work for a company, I negotiate how much MY labor per hour is worth, and agree to that.

"negotiate"

yes negotiate lol

If you've never negotiated during a job interview, you're a fucking moron.

"you'll work for us at this rate or lose your healthcare and die"

Have you ever actually applied and gotten a job @CthulhuOnIce

@dairypillows yeah?

so all the people without healthcare before obamacare were dead

I’m more of an absolute anarchy person myself

Fuck Obamacare lol

@CthulhuOnIce and did you negotiate your pay?

Sure, but I work for a small business.

I support and like small business.

1. You have the freedom to negotiate your wages
2. You have the freedom to quit and work for a competitor paying more
3. You have the freedom to start a competitive company
4. You have the freedom to walk away any time you choose

There’s your answer and if you don’t like big business don’t work for them.

..if you're not poor @LC

@LC amen

It feels like I’m watching the Anti-View when I take a peek in here

My first job was $3.00/hr in farm fields, so don't talk to me about what being poor is like.

I did okay, because I took opportunities presented to me, and didn't expect people to hand me things for nothing.

forcing businesses to raise wages is exactly what large corporations want to happen because its easy for them to foot the bill of a wage rate hike.

@LC we would have fought for you too

thats why larger corporations back the laws all the time.

I don't want you "fighting for me"

That's unfortunate

I don't want government running my fucking life.

I'll keep my freedom to make my own choices, and do business with who I want, thanks.

and I don't want "daddy government" stepping in between who I want to give my MONEY to

Not everyone has that freedom

Oh okay

Yes. EVERYONE has that freedom. If you have two arms and two legs, you have that freedom.

@LC how do you feel about reddits treatment of t_d?

irrelevant to the conversation

Answer the question

Unless you live in communism, then if you don’t work you get a bullet to the back of the head

Communism is having no government
