I was watching a report from earlier about all the airline companies here in the U.S. and i have come to learn that such a market is risky but can be fined tuned.

Same with the GOP.

American Airlines has been so far the only airline company that has not yet gone bankrupt. The only reason is that the did not raise wages of employees. Well, they should put a cap to the bonuses and wage raises to the CEO's and Top managers.

That same concept has to be applied to the GOP. Notice that the minimum wage has to be kept at a level to were it is not a struggle to live and for certain commodities for the recipients of such wage.

To keep employees happy, the income difference of all the employees should not be that big, because if you compare the GOP to the AA company, they are both huge in their own size. So the GOP employees should also have normal wages.

Same with education. Why are the Colleges making it impossible for a normal person to finish a career with out being buried in dept? There should be a way to prevent Colleges to make too much money, but rather help person get an education with less money.

That's why the U.S citizens currently owe more than a trillion bucks in education loans. Stop putting your selves in dept. I say put a cap on education prices.

^^^ yes I have to agree with you on some things. I do believe the minimum federal wage is needed to regulate the salary v.s the cost of living. I do not however like bloated salaries. Yes, one who has invented the company should get paid highest; it was their idea, but getting paid 200% more than the employee?; absurd.

This goes for the employee salary as well. When I retained my ex-lawyer for my immigration legal fees, they charged me $300 an hr when working on my case. They also charged me $150 per 20 min they were on the phone with me. I had to pay them when I wanted to see how my case was proceeding. Long-story-short, it ended up costing me 15k JUST to have them "read" it. (eating cookies on my expense)

Some union jobs pay their workers absurd amounts of money and tough regulations make it hard for small business owners like my dad to get work projects. All some people want to do is to get rich overnight by doing nothing.

- As for education expenses, I agree. They recently raised my tuition 20%. It is indeed hard to finish school without being buried in debt. These days even after you do get your degree, there is no promise you'll get employed.

I don't know, shyt is bad.

Mother retired from American Airlines as an accountant like 10 years ago well let me re phrase that my mother was made to retire by American Airlines. AA restructured all union contracts to take far less money they started sending planes to other countries for cheaper maintenance on the planes. Forcing all senior staff whose pensions were getting expensive into retirement with a buyout instead of that pension. And finaly the CEO of AA went a few years without taking a salary at all now I think he is at 500k which compared to other CEO in business that large is ridiculously low. So there are a lot better examples of what your asking for like Goldman Zachs.

There is a reason there driving the prices up because they dont want the average person to get in the university any longer Grants and scholarships if possible or do like me and go serve and have your education paid for by the GI bill.

When I say the GOP, I only say it so that hopefully they can stop fu***ng us over because they filibustered the DA. As for the Democrats, they done lost the congress majority and and the only hold like 4 more seats to the senate, so I don't think that the DA will be passed anytime soon

That's why I said: set up some sort of ceiling to the bonuses and and high wages that those greedy people on the top have, for that's whats widening the gap between the poor and the rich, while the middle gets pulled to the bottom.

If they don't get paid that much for what they do, then everybody under them is happy.

Hopefully you will figure out in a shorter period of time than me that Republican and Democrat are one in the same and when you hear someone that is so adamant about being a Rep or Dem just know there pathetic there one of these people that cannot think for them selves but need to feel as part of group it really is ridiculous. Point being the current filibuster rules that the senate are playing under are there because of Democrats matter fact when republican tried to change them in 2005 then senator Obama led the charge not to change filibusterer rules. See what I mean one in the same.
