Yet another harangue from a capitalist running dog. Move on nothing new here, nothing to see. We all know immigration is a capitalist codeword for labor exploitation, keep those wages low, benefits nonexistent, and jobs to a minimum, so they will be docile and subservient.

According to this Robber Baron apologist, I am 10 times better off than I was in the 50s. Lets see, my dad, in the fifties could afford from his average salary to buy a new car every 2 years. Guess what in my so called better life, I buy a new car every 15 years. yea thats progress. I think this tool lumps the progress of the top 2% in with the rest of us smucks to come up with his baloney good news. The average wage buys less today than it did years ago, plus the average wage is falling and benefits are disappearing. The good news just keeps coming...

Don't make me laugh, cool tech at farcebook... NOT.

Warmed over AOL training wheel walled garden bullcrap is not cutting edge. Whoop De Dooo, its got an API.

Sorry but I left AOL years ago, and guess what, no one cool ever worked for AOL or Farcebook.

Pure Korpo Fascist apologist hack at work here...

Kind of skipped over the whole 'US was founded on the premise of keeping corporations from having citizenship rights'.

Korps in decline, I think not, rights of real people in decline, rights of corporations on the continued rise.

Sorry to burst yer bubbles, but this has all been discounted years ago, mainly by the United States Air Force. They did extensive studies on the optimum work hours/recreation hours and found that strict 9-5, 5 days on, 2 days off, was far more productive and safe than any other configuration.

They won't let you put in more than 40 hrs a week in those multi-billion dollar war planes. Working more than 40 hours a week is counter productive. It increases the likely-hood of bad judgement, cloudy thinking etc will creep into the work.

So the Robber-Baron Korp evil HR types who think they are being cool forcing people to work 40+ hours, are actually just hurting their bottom line.

Fascism, the boot that keeps on stomping on your face.

No wonder there is no competition in local markets for internet access or cable.

America, the founding fathers took corporations rights away, whore lawyer Lincoln gave them back in spades, and people have been getting screwed ever since.

All the snobby effete commenters who write off this trend, just wait until enough people are marginalized and they decide to do something about it.

I will never understand why Xerox did not sue the pants off Jobs when he stole 99% of this visual gui design and then claimed forever onward that Apple was responsible for it.

The thing that killed this was at that time no company was going to spend close to the salary of a typist to outfit said typist with this kit. (I believe it was in the 10-20K range.)

Just consider this. Most tax money goes toward providing defense, Which is just a nice word for protecting the property of the wealthy. The more property you have, then the more value you receive, thus the more, not less, you should pay. Its called welfare for the rich. Our taxes go towards securing their position and goods. Say hello to that boot rushing down on you.

The title should have been Name Dropping, why I just can't stop...

Gag me with a shovel... can't get any more pretentious than this teenie bopper pop star. Equally pretentious are his so called fans who think their portable music devices certify their hipness.

Beats me, how the mob is considered hip. The mob today and increasingly in the future is your parents, old people, squares, used car salesmen, insurance salesmen, and the like. Yea, I cant get enough of that, send me moar

This is by far the kuu-elle-est thing I have seen on the web this year.

The Ann Rand fanboy fantasy thought permeates so many of the trustfunded hipsters here.

The primary expense of any government is security, both local and national. Police and Military. Protect the property of the individual. Why should Bill and his buddies pay for an army when we do it for them? Taxes should be based on value received, which means that those with the most property get the most value, so they should pay the highest taxes, but in our country the opposite is in practice. We working stiffs, with very little property, pay the lion;s share of the police and military budget. ,
