I'd really like to know why government believes it needs to stick its nose into this industry
Because the people at the head of the industry, who are the ones making all the money due to the IT worker's hard work, decided that they aren't satisfied with obscene profits, and thus need to get rid of OT so they can get grossly obscene profits.
What's funny is most of the people who would support this trash are probably also the ones who would yell at the poor saying, "Don't buy shit you can't afford, and you won't be poor!" But apparently business doesn't have to worry about what it can and can't afford.
Tea party members do not refer to themselves as "tea baggers"
Because after you started calling yourselves that, you were told what it means. If I wanted to form a special interest party dedicated to improving the American citrus farming industry, and chose a lemon as my sigil, I really couldn't get mad when my group was called the Lemon Party, now could I?
You also have made me crave some sun tea now. If it wasn't for the Santa Anas blowing like an army of $10 hookers, I'd totally be making some right now.
Even today, it's rather unusual to find tea in bags
Depends. Most grocery stores sell the majority of their tea in bags. Now if you're talking about a specific tea/coffee shop, then yes, I would agree with you. But I don't think most Americans get their tea from those places.
There is nothing inherently social about clearing trash off of private property.
Yes, there is. Sanitation is inherently social, especially in areas where that "private property" is very close to the "private property" of others, and can easily affect the others.
Please spare us the give-up-your-profession-to-run-against-the-guy-being-paid-to-run-for-office-or-move-to-Somalia bullshit which can be used to browbeat people into passivity about anything.
Why? If you're not willing to work to change something, then why the fuck should we pay attention to you at all?
Actually, there is. It's called "moving somewhere else."
People like you, however, won't accept that as a viable solution, because you want to have your cake (services/benefits of living where you are), and eat it too (not paying for those things).
Fuck off with that "Our time is worth something!" bullshit. You do not spend that much time sorting out your recycling. If you do, then you're doing it wrong.
I remember that episode. They failed to take into account the benefit of less shit making it's way into landfills, meaning that they don't get full as much, and last longer.
Considering I pay the city for trash pick up (and where I am, we actually pay private firms.. the city does not provide trash pick up) they should be the ones to sort it, in my opinion.
Then go find a company that is willing to sort it for you. And be prepared to pay extra for that service.
Then you should be required to pay out the ass for trash hauling, as you are taking up vastly more space in the landfill, with things that could easily have not gone there. Worse, you're probably making more work for someone else to sort your shit.
Pull your self absorbed head out of your ass sometime, and realize that there is more than just you in the world.
My US bank does that too. In fact, they called me even on some valid charges that looked suspicious (filled some water jugs at a machine in Orange County, but the machine was billing out of Philadelphia).
They need to have the domain expertise and the experience to be able to determine whether something is novel or not. Some random engineer might not have that expertise. You need people that are actually high up in their field, and those people usually don't come cheap.
Like it or not, the beer of America will always be tainted by the mass-market crap perception that American's don't know anything about beer (which is likely unfair, but very real nonetheless).
And with that statement, you continue to show your ignorance. Either actually learn something, or shut up and let people who know what they're talking about talk.
And, are you incapable of saying anything without saying fuck? Or should I be impressed somehow?
You're not supposed to do shit. But if you can't handle colorful language, I suggest you get off the internet.
So fucking what? We're not talking about the most popular, we're talking about whether or not there is "real beer" here in America. And the fact of the matter is, there's quite a lot of it. It's just not advertised during the Super Bowl.
the point being, a manufacturing facility would employ more people for a longer time
Would it? Most manufacturing in America is highly automated. I would imagine a medium sized manufacturing facility would probably employ about the same amount of people.

No. You can't complain about the term Tea Bagger when the Tea Baggers themselves were the ones who started calling themselves that.
How can you be sure of that?
So you're saying that because you completely suck at organization, then everyone else must? Because that's all your complaint boils down to.
He's not that far off.
Shouldn't that be happening though? If you can't follow the rules, then you don't get the service.

There is no way to opt-out of taxes.

Yes, it is a pain in the ass.
Only if you're a lazy pile of shit.

Do you think your average store clerk would be able to detect forged signatures?
My US bank does that too. In fact, they called me even on some valid charges that looked suspicious (filled some water jugs at a machine in Orange County, but the machine was billing out of Philadelphia).
Just because someone recognizes you as a hater doesn't mean that they're a fanboy.

How many people lost their jobs in the music CD industry because of iTunes?
Perhaps the CD industry shouldn't have been so shitty then if they didn't want to be eliminated.

I call hogwash on this meme of "small business is the backbone of America".
Statistically speaking, small businesses employ over half of Americans. Which is why they're called the "Backbone of America."
