Right. And given the public rhetoric emanating from the Republican side of the US Congress, and the associated media mouthpieces, it's little wonder that great swaths of the public latch on to the "concerns affecting business owners" and ignore the "concerns affecting the employees", even though the vast majority of people are employees. I blame the Democrats (and the Republicans) for not doing a better job of educating the public as to how the issues that get media play actually affect the American people.
Instead, we get "Don't do anything to infringe the ability of corporations to maximize profits at the expense of all other concerns", which is translated into the much more palatable "Don't do anything to affect the job creators ability to create more jobs". This last, a near-constant refrain despite the fact that the massive tax-lowering and regulation-stripping effort begun during the GW Bush presidency led to a massive depletion of jobs (a trend so powerful, it continues to this day, along with the Congressional blocking of tax revenue increases and effective regulatory oversight of businesses...) and most definitely not an increase in the creation of jobs, by the supposed job-creators. It's the biggest load of horseshit ever sold, and it just galls me that it keeps getting bought and sold, over and over by a gullible public and a greedy Corporate-Legislative cabal.
So, I call out anyone dishonest or ignorant enough to participate in the sustaining of this blatant lie.
