re: #40 imp_62
One of the things you mention is that people are “striking for a living wage”. I don’t think this is always true, and I don’t think every strike is justified.
I don’t think everyone is striking for a living wage; I’m pointing out that if they are, cutting off any assistance would render them rather helpless.
As far as strikes being ‘justified’— I’m not sure what you mean. There are laws governing strikes, and lockouts.
But a discussion about the limits of, and access to, public support is perfectly legitimate without getting frustrated.
I’m mostly frustrated with the insane hyperbole that you’ve engaged in. It was really pretty astonishing for you to deny using hyperbole and then accuse me of not even having a concept of personal responsibility in my thinking.
Maybe in your world, that’s not a really insulting thing to allege. It is in mine.
