We need to fix this gubment.
1.7 trillion of our economy is for compliance to regulations.

Unbeleivable AND how may trillions in jobs has it cost us ?

Which Regulations do you want to do away with? The ones that provide a safe work place? The ones that protect clean water? The ones stop companies from selling poison and calling it medicine or food? How about the ones that provide equal access for the handicapped?

One of the recent Marxist regulations cost 2 million workers their jobs.

Raising min wage, just gets the entry level worker laid off.

That means other workers will have to pay more taxes to support the unemployed that fit your big gubment model.

Marxism hurts the people they claim to help.

In every major study on increasing the minimum wage the average standard of living has gone up with the minimum wage. If a company is allowed to pay wages that will not cover the basic cost of living then it is the tax payers who will have to pick up the tab through medicaid, subsidized housing and food stamps. "entry level worker" is just another way of "saying unpaid wages" and dishonoring the hard work of others. Only 1.6 percent of Wal-Mart employees live above the poverty level. So we are subsidizing wages that Wal-Mart refuses to pay all while their stores displace business that once paid living wages and built strong communities.

I take it you have never studied actual economics and regurgitate the stuff from the leftist blogs.

You need to read instead of regurgitating. You also are very uneducated regarding Walmart.

You don't have a clue regarding the cost of 17% unemployment in this country..

In fact, they just opened 2 new stores in Chicago. The Union tried to keep them out. Between the 2 stores, they had 40,000 job applicants. Chicago is very crooked in regards to unions and organized crime.

"Only 1.6 percent of Wal-Mart's employees live above the poverty level." This was in the news a couple of weeks ago. Chicago didn't want the Wal-mart stores there because almost everyone that works there will still qualify for some form of federal assistance and the stores will displace businesses that pay living wages. If Wal-Mart were a country it would be one of China's top ten trading partners. They are taking billions out of the US economy and returning very little.

No, I am not an economic expert but I can as the Bible says "judge by the fruits" and I stopped believing the free market propaganda a long time ago.
Under the constitution corporations have person-hood but they are persons without a conscience to convict or a body to incarcerate; virtual sociopaths if you will. The only way sociopaths are safe is in a highly regulated environment.

Highly uneducated people are paranoid about Corporations. In fact, when a corporation goes public, they have to use independent CPA's for audits. These audits have to be Sarbannes Oxley compliant to be accepted.

You also are not a psychologist. You have no idea what a sociopath is.
In fact you are rather Marxist. You can't name a successfull Marxist economy. As a liberal drone, it is sociopaths that feed foster and incubate Marxist economies.

Your worldview would be like the failed economy of Venezuela and Chavez.
