Maybe WE should concentrate on who get voted into Office into our Legislature tomorrow in the VI Tomorrow!
Where ever you are eligible to Vote, JUST DO IT!

The unintended consequences of Big Government. Somebody has to pay! We all will pay! The business owners will increase their prices.
People will get laid off or hours cut because of Obama Care.
Employers will cut hours to part-time so they don't have to provide Health Care.

Big government speeds up and slows down as it feels like it.
Wait until after the event that the injunction is supposed to stop to rule on the request. Can you say USELESS!
The union does not even represent Walmart workers.

"The National Labor Relations Board said Friday that due to the 'complex' legal issue, it will issue a ruling next week on Walmart's request for an injunction against union-backed worker protests at store locations on Thanksgiving night and Black Friday."

Is this person stupid?

"Employees like Josue Mata, 28, an immigrant from Mexico who is divorced and a father of four, voiced his dissatisfaction with the new hours. He told WFAA.com, a Dallas station, that he makes $8.70 an hour cleaning floors.

"The holiday is time you need to spend with your family," he said, while taking part in a small protest near Fort Worth. "You have 365 other days to have a sale. It's really pointless. It's all about money.""

Of course it is all about making money! That's what private businesses are all about. They were all created to make money for their owners. If you don't like your current employer then quit and start your own business, then you can set your own hours.

The only organizations which employ people that are not expected to make money are the Government and Non-Profit Corporations. And they both ultimately depend on businesses that were created to make money. The government gets its money through taxes and the non-profits from donations. They are both indirectly funded by businesses which operate for a profit.

Did this moron think that Walmart was created to provide him with a job? Most manufacturing businesses would rather automate than have human workers. Machines complain less than humans. And usually do a better job.

Non-profits can be businesses too, they just have to have no profits at the end of the year. In other words, they can have full time employees (or owners) that take, through pay, money from the company.
