Read Les Misérables, or go down to the strip club for excellent examples of people coerced by economic pressure. All those Eastern European women are doing porn for the love of porn, right?
Many employers are only too happy to replace you with an incompetent. They usually fit the corporate culture better and your good work will take years to unravel.
Sorry to reply to myself, but I wanted to note that your inability to imagine a trash management system that involves more then sticking some receptacles at the end of your driveway says much about you. I hope you are not home schooling your children because they need to be exposed to people with better thought processes and problem solving skills. If you are home schooling please make sure your children have access to another more intelligent adult role model.
I'm sure every parent can or wants to home school. Getting rid of public education would condemn hundreds or thousands of genius's to a life of ignorance, not to mention the non-genius's. It would throw us into a dark hole of ignorance and cronyism.
Meanwhile getting rid of garbage men would require every American to deliver their own bags of trash to the dump. This is still common practice in many parts of the US.
Free public education only seem vastly over rated because you take it for granted. Take a long look at countries that don't provide it. Better yet, think of how ignorant many of the people around you are, now imagine they are the only ones educating their children, is that the world you want to live in? We decided long ago it was not, but there will always be ultra-conservatives who want to kick us back to the amish age because they can't wrap their heads around the notion of progress.
This is a bad economy, lets see how your wage stacks up when employment recovers and your friends get 10% or more salary increases to change companies. Meanwhile you are grinding away with that 3% COL increase.
Gov jobs look great when the economy is tanking, but they are not high wage jobs. They are just stable jobs.
Are you implying that an R would give a D the benefit of the doubt? I find this statement risible. R's have made their steadfast refusal to compromise abundantly clear to anyone with a brain.
Maybe in a rural setting, if you are in a larger city with some competition between hospitals, rooms can be very nice. We have 3 major hospitals in our area and while one appears to have a culture that encourages shortcuts and crappy service, the other two give excellent care.
This was rudely stated, but true. You should use your knowledge to find someone you can trust who will communicate processes with you and teach you to do the little things. Stay away from the big consulting houses. They will send you someone who can't answer your questions because they are following little scripts and don't actually know how to do things. Look for a small provider you can trust.
Even if they have iron clad guarantees for file availability (which you will pay through the nose for) there are too many variables. The CEO could be a crook, or you could be on the same equipment the feds seize for some sort of investigation.

True, but it's hard to hop when the lily pad gets yanked out while you are starting to crouch.

Whoa, don't get all reasonable...

Charter schools are great! (opportunities for every charlatan and carpetbagger who wants to make a buck at the expense of our children)
So you are unclear on the difference between an hourly job and a salaried job? Here is some light reading: http://www.ehow.com/about_5045862_definition-salaried-worker.html
The teachers are not the problem, the politicians and administrators (the real problem) are using them as a smoke screen.
Your post has less to do with how great teachers have it and more to do with how much other industries have abused their workes.
Let me refer you to an interesting discussion on this very subject: http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/12/07/24/199238/gadget-addiction-or-work-intrusion
Economics is no more useful then studying rain dance.
Well that might be an exaggeration.. it looks a little better on your resume.

I don't think systems of taxation should be designed to encourage imaginative methods of accounting. These are directly contrary to an open system.
Thank you for your insightful comments.
It has recently been estimated by the Small Business Administration that small businesses pay over $10,000 per employee in regulatory costs alone.
I'd love for them to show their work, because they don't have any skin in this game and I should believe them wholeheartedly.
How many startups are asking panhandlers for cash? You ask the rich to contribute, because they have the money, that's why they are called rich.
Ahh, I see you think these jokers are listening to reason...
