“The fact is whether one looks at this [outsourcing] in terms of men and women, working men and women in this country who are simply being screwed, or whether one looks at this in terms of corporations who are benefiting, the fact is it is certainly not helping the American economy.” MenLooksCountryFactsHelpingTermEconomyMen And WomenLaborCorporationsWorking ManOutsourcingAmerican Economy Author:Lou Dobbs
“When people live in the full light of an open society, paying their taxes, abiding by the rules, that makes not only our country safer and more secure because people are not relegated to living in the shadows and not creating underground economies, it also is better for wages because the fact that people are working on the books in the open means that there's greater demand for labor and you don't have this submarket.” PeopleMeanBookCountryFactsLightEconomyGreaterDemandTaxesCreatingShadowLaborOur CountrySecureWagesAbiding Author:Martin O'Malley

“Historically, labor unions arose when people had gotten a taste of a different lifestyle and were willing to pay a lot more for their basic livelihood and had gotten into a fix they couldn't get out of - because they had accepted the unacceptable to begin with. Accepting something you have to form a labor union to fight after the fact only tells me that people were acting against their own best (or even good) interests for a long time. I don't see any rational, coherent explanation for this sort of behavior in humans, but it's all over the place.” PeopleHumansLongDifferentFactsFormFightingInterestPayActingAcceptingWillingTasteBehaviorLong TimeLaborUnionsAcceptedLifestyleRationalExplanationLivelihoodLabor UnionDifferent Lifestyles Author:Erik Naggum
“One’s life, liberty and the products of one’s labor were not intended to be up for grabs by grubby, greedy majorities. Contra classical natural law theory, legal positivism equates justice with the law of the state.

A need is not a right.” MenWantNeedsDoeFactsLibertyProductsLaborMajorityFundHealthcareGreedy Author:Ilana Mercer
