"Your "hard working" managers and professionals have given me a death sentence.

I will not live to see it, but someone, someday, will return the favor."

Bigotry, generalizations and hopes for violence. It's all politics and class with you. I'd be surprised if you considered the human factor.

I'm sorry about the illnesses you and your wife have. And I applaud your union work.

My father (that hateful "owner") also suffers from ruptured disc's in his back and is 100% disabled from that and war injuries from Vietnam. His constant interaction with doctors and hospitals and the VA have led him to be a firm believer in health care reform and public support. How surprising for a capitalist overlord! His employees always loved him because he never gave them a task he wouldn't or couldn't do himself. He led by example for them and for me. He taught me about hard work, debt, the traps that exist in the world created by people, banks and the government.

He stepped off the plane from 'nam with fifty bucks in his bucket and barely a high school education. But he discovered what he was good at and worked hard to become a success. He taught me to keep my word and not screw people over. So, no I don't spit on hard-workers. That would be like spitting on myself.

Do you think he burst from the womb as a "business owner"? No, that was the result of years of hard work. He started at the same line the rest of us did.

Your rhetoric falls apart at the human level. That's my problem with your class-aligned youth organization. You don't see people, you just see labels and occupations.
