Oil Prices Go Down, Gas Goes Up

What about the suffering that would have been caused to the workers if those companies were allowed to fail?

That’s okay because you stopped the greedy corporation from causing suffering in the name of profit.

If everybody is suffering in squalor, everything is fine comrade.

As long as we’re all suffering equally.
EDIT:
Some comrades suffer less than others. My assumption is that suffering decreases with proximity to power…

So bail them out with public money? What happened to one of the dictates of the ā€œfree-marketā€ bootlickers? Why shouldn’t they have failed? They didn’t fail because they bought both parties.

Not in the U.S.

Sorry I read that wrong and I agree with you.

On this forum?

It happened to a friend of mine over his girlfriend.

Are you in the majority?

Happens all the time.

How many corporation dump their trash-like substances in rivers and things of that nature?

How many people have suffered and even died from this awful ā€œhealthcareā€ system?

The sick mania for profits continues.

How does my points become legit if I win a popularity contest?

Yep, I believe I have mentioned it here before. And I have NEVER thought they should be given bailouts.

But you still vote for those who enable these kind of things to happen? Those who make the debt worse. Something I know that’s important to you.

You are aware that there are some politicians who don’t vote for dumb shit, right? These are the people I vote for - or at least this is the conduct I expect when voting for someone… should their voting pattern change from what I expected or wanted, then my voting pattern will change as well. Tis the tale of politics.

Please show me who I can vote for that actually has even a slight chance of winning that won’t enable this.

I’m all ears.

Is this the normal, typical way things are coming about? Wage raises. And seeing how the CEO’s make 350 to 1. Who is getting the raises?

And who do you vote for? Examples of their voting record?

So if there is no one that fills your qualifications, then just vote for corruption?

So you’d let all of the innocent workers of the big corporations be laid off and suffer, just to spite the rich guys? You aren’t interested in bringing up the little guy, just tearing down the big guy.

I mean you make it sound like there is only one qualifying factor.

They are all corrupt.

Pick your poison. I pick what is going to be the best possibly outcome for me based on what I can reasonably know.

Unless you are some psychic with insider information, then you are in the same boat.
