I have seen examples of co-ops that are working out quite well for all involved and turning a decent profit even in these trying times.
But i'll be honest; that's not for me i'd prefer to own the business and keep the profits.

Sure, but to a point. Problem is most people don't want to give back. Imagine the psychology behind that being raised in state capitalist society...
I'll give you one of my fruity far left anarchist/communist answers: Cooperatives/cooperative economics.
I've never heard of them here.
As long as they co op the liability as well. I guess it would work.
The progressives here want to get paid more money than they are worth and say fuck you if they cause any liability to the company and want the owner to assume all the risk and liabilities.

Ok I could not sleep on this one and had to make a phone call. You are so right about the write off on the premiums for employee if I was to pay 100 percent I would could right off a 100 percent. Damn I had no clue on that one. I do apologize and will certainly look into what I could do to make that change, but it might not be necessary with AHCA. Really sorry for my part and thanks for that lesson

ehhhh, never liked the people I saw at occupy, kind of the fringe type you'd see on the other side at a teabagger rally, but that's not to say there weren't good people involved. As for the second part, it depends on what you think progressive means.
I'm a democratic socialist, and believe it or not while some of us would have fit into occupy's model, there were mainly just a lot of dumbass hippie liberals and green party types. Kind of weird when you consider over time occupy on the national level evolved into an anti-capitalist movement.
I'll give you one of my conservative questions, what's stopping you?

yeah, they've been fucking up for a long time now.
their stupidest mistake was the southern strategy. demographics are destiny, and they chose theirs.

Looks like the propaganda is working for now. Sort of like 6 months before the election in 2012.
How did that work out?
Obama just announced he wants to delay the individual mandate!
He could have told the truth and done that months ago, the US wouldn't have shut down, how much did you say that cost again?
nope, unemployment among the newly graduated is like 40%.
God is going to live with the folks in their basement for a while until he figures out how to retire on welfare, SNAP and housing subsidies.

LMAO.....What in the hell do YOU know about working? Your post yesterday consisted of getting stoned, eating, getting stoned, fucking, getting stoned, fucking some more, etc etc etc. No work involved there unless you consider the 3 minutes you spent fucking Cheezytoes.

i did my work over the summer and early autumn.
now i just have my indoor grow going, which i visit for a week or two every month to tend to: harvesting, trimming, manicuring, transplanting new flowerers, transplanting small clones to N1 containers, taking new batches of clones, pruning, shaping, neeming, fertilizing, categorizing, culling, staking, tying, training etc etc etc.
the rest of the time the neighbors take care of it, all they have to do is turn on lights, water, and make sure the house doesn't burn down. sometimes they neem a plant if they see the borg or signs of the borg. they get half the take for their small bit of work.
ya see, i'm a job creator.
come this march, i will be back outside again, readying greenhouses, tilling soil, digging holes, amending soil, planting, guarding, and the like. but until then, it is winter of buck, snowbirding in san jose. eating good food and enjoying life.
try not to be so bitter, sport.

Maybe he is retired... That's what I got out of it anyways. Nothing wrong with earning your money fast and retiring young.so in other words..you're unemployed
