corporate profits are at an all time high.It's not revenge. They just want to keep their profits up....that's what companies do.Obama knew this would happen. Everybody knew this would happen. Why are you all so surprised and pissed?
The only thing a CEO worries about it is the profit margin and how many employees to cut from the work force to keep their HUGE nest egg intact. I don't live on the reservation ND. I live on the border. My dad is white. We have never taken any kind of hand out from the tribe or the U.S. government. We didn't need it.
$0.10 more per pizza so all the employees can have health care?Constrict doesn't mean 'limit'.
By raising taxes they are 'constricting' profits.
And they want to keep them that way. I'm not saying these guys deserve what they're being paid.
I thought we were talking about medical companies.$0.10 more per pizza so all the employees can have health care?
TYRANNY!
shit cock.
Does this sound like a fair way to do business for American middle class families?
No they are saving money so they can stay open.
they can keep them that way AND provide health care for their employees.
yeah, some big decisions.. " should i drive the bmw or the mercedes to work today?"
This is blatantly not true. Research how much the companies you just listed are already worth ^^^, they are not in jeopardy of bankruptcy.
Did I put up the capital to get the business started? Am I the one who's going to pay the price financially for being 'fair' to these two workers? If I put up all the money, and I take all the risks......I will do what ever makes sense for me.
As long as your workers agree to it, whats the big deal? Its totally moral, ethical and totally fair to offer them that choice.
No, you likely borrowed money from your dad (the bank) to start your lemonade stand. If by 'price' you mean either reduce your your own profits by 10% or the reinvestment back into the lemonade stand at 10%, then yes, though that's subjective, as employee morale, as evident by multiple scientific studies, is worth -10% to increase productivity. Keep your employees happy, your business has a better chance of growing and you could potentially have 2 or 3 lemonade stands next summer, instead of just the one. 2-3 x $100 = $200-$300 sub the standard $15 x 4-6 employees, you're now walking away with $140-$220 profit, sub $20-$30 back into the business, $120-$190 goes directly into your pocket, 4-6 times more than the previous summer, and all your employees couldn't be happier.
Imo, in an economy like ours, it no longer becomes a choice, it becomes a requirement. People agree to such things for many reasons, namely they don't understand business, but also because they have to, because they don't have a choice, because there is no other work they can do to survive or provide for themselves. We can talk endlessly about why that is, but to this discussion it's irrelevant.
I just would like to see a budget passed. Obama has to work with Republicans as well. He isnt King of the World, just President.
Pad you may think less of me but the obvious solution to me to having almost 1/3 less business is to carry 1/3 less staff, there isn't enough work for everyone anymore. So one of my buddies either have to be laid off, or we all take 1/3 cut in pay (your math is off by 10 bucks), which is fair if we are doing 1/3 less work.
I should have been slightly more clear I was meaning small to mid-sized companies. The ones where the profits flow straight to their owners Form 1040. You can recognize them by their puckered up ass.
