    The world isn't the USA you know. You will get terrible onerous business destroying laws all over the States soon. It is just a matter of time. People like you will be cheerleading the final complete destruction of US business.

    No. I want to be able to fire people that are damaging my business by their actions. The fact you think that I should be supportive of a drunk rider and pay for his screw up says a lot about you.

    Now enter education- kids graduate from high school knowing less about more things then a high school graduate in 1860.

    Don't you mean a fifth grader from 1860?

    I actually have no problem with equality so long as it is actually equal. The sort of feminism on display here is becoming much more mainstream and that is scary stuff.

    Close enough to Adelaide. Have to go to town for the best coffee anyway. I'm building an off grid house on 66 acres in the Adelaide Hills. Not a drinker myself as I become even more of a wanker than usual.

    just a few posts above irlintraining says it is because girls don't want to work as hard as the men.

    Makes me wonder if they would flock to the industry if the industry was prepared to employ them on terms specially crafted for their gender?

    Looking at the pictures of the Booth 'Babes' at E3 I thought that they were being very PC. It's not like they didn't give fuglies a job too. I was surprised not to see Shakespeare's Sister in a thong.

    During the late 19th and early 20th century, millions of Americans received social welfare benefits from voluntary fraternal societies.

    And how much aid did those societies loving providely to LGBT individuals? If you look back, you'll find that those societies provided aid to people based on their sexual orientation or the color of their skin. State welfare resources are color-blind, and thankfully they are becoming increasingly blind to the gender of one's life partner.

    Back in those days we felt sorry for a man who had lost his penis not encouraged to worship his diversity.

    Bullshit: charities are an example of failure in action all too often.

    Once again you quote Huffington. It seems to be your goto place for facts.

    I wonder what happens when you lose your job and need help. I for one do not trust the bible-fuckers of the christian charities to treat me fairly.

    You would take their charity in an heartbeat all the while sneering at them for being religious bible fuckers and thinking you would have got more if you weren't a black man.. You make me sick. You are a worthless sack of parasitic shit.

    "hire and fire at will" is a problem, because it inevitably leads to:

    - firing women for being pregnant.

    Why should I support their lifestyle? Why should I pay for them when their decisions/lifestyle choices take them away from my business? Why should I have to find, hire, and pay someone for doing their job(all while paying the pregnant employee for not being there)? What do I do if the temp I hire does their job much better than they did? What about paternity leave?

    - firing someone for being "gay", or not being a member of the "correct" religion (or any religion), or other stupid excuses.

    What happen if the men who shop at my trouser store don't like a mincing queer measuring their inside leg? Should I not be able to fire someone who is damaging my business? Do I get a better class of customer or do I go bankrupt to protect his diversity?

    - firing someone because they've been injured or have a disability.

    When my storeman severely injures himself riding his motorbike while drunk should I have to create a new job for him if he cannot do his old one?

    Fuck I hate the entitlement/victim class!
