ParticipantMost popular inkjet printer cartridges can be refilled at Costco for around $10.
ParticipantThe CSU protests this past week shoud have been directed at the public employee unions – they are the main reason tuition and fees are being jacked up.
ParticipantThere’s strong evidence that Occupy Los Angeles has been hijacked (or even initiated) by public employee union scumbags. I present the following piece of evidence:

If I appear to be “pro-union” on this board, in actuality, I’m not … entirely …
It’s complicated… to the nth degree …[/quote]
Let me take a guess though – you’re pro-union when it comes to the SuperHumans (gov’t workers)?
ParticipantWith the OWS crowd kicked out of various parks among other stated reasons for a lack of sanitary conditions, it’s been pointed out the real filth is on Wall Street along with those MFers.
Participant[quote=briansd1] As a liberal, I long for the conservative olden days when people didn’t go out of the house unless properly dressed; and when kids were respectful and behaved politely.[/quote]
I second that motion!
Participant[quote=KSMountain]Is freedom of assembly absolute? For example, should folks be able to setup a tent city on the runway at LAX or in the control room at San Onofre?
“Who’s power plant? Our power plant!”. Great…[/quote]
No it isn’t absolute. BTW, here’s the governments idea of freedom of assembly:

You think the wiring is up to code in these encampments? Do you think there’s an extension cord or two in use? You think tents are flammable? How about the use of space heaters? I imagine a death from CO poisoning was/is only a few weeks away. Mark that prediction.There’s a reason we have codes and regulations – it’s not to be dicks it’s because tragedies happen and people die and then the survivors demand action to prevent further occurrences. Remember all the folks who died at the nightclub in RI a few years back?
You think the sexual assaults were PsyOps? I don’t. I can easily believe they occurred – very easily. Would you want your 18 old daughter at one? Sure, a great civics lesson and all that, but when you get down to it, would you really encourage your child to dwell in that environment?[/quote]
Codes? Are you kidding me?
First of all, I have no idea if codes are being violated. Or if there really were assaults.
I will tell you this, protesting (especially against the powers that be) is a messy business – always has been, always will be.
Participant[quote=flu]While I might have agreed with the very very very original intent of OWS protests (the first few days), it’s really getting ridiculously Looney Tunes…

…..The rose parade?…..
How about a little more targeted focus ?????[/quote]

November 13, 2011 at 10:53 PM in reply to: Excellent Economist Mag. article on CA’s Gov. retiree Pension problems #732876Participant[quote=gandalf]I don’t like public employee unions or their benefit programs. They are a fraction of the problem.[/quote]
Yah, about 9/10’s.
November 13, 2011 at 10:52 PM in reply to: CA Revenue comes in 6.5% lower than expected (and some common sense solutions) #732874Participant[quote=bearishgurl]Lol, Domo, I can’t imagine you would give up a meager pension that you yourself fed into thru payroll deductions after 23 years of toiling in “the system” for low pay.
You stated yourself that you believe you make more $$ working for a private enterprise. However, if you have never applied to any government position, you do not actually know if you are “hiring material.” Until your lengthy application is processed, you take (and pass) the required written exam (if applic), you interview (sometimes multiple times with one agency) and ALL your background checks are run (and the govm’t employer is satisfied with “who you are”), you don’t even know IF you can even obtain a position with govm’t!
Until such time as you go thru the above described process, you have no idea if you have or would have had the “choice” of a public or private “career.”[/quote]
You make me want to puke.
The ‘gov’t hiring system’ isn’t even nearly that fair, you forgot to ask if by chance domo happened to be a white male. In that case a gov’t job wouldn’t have been a choice at all.
BG you are a clown, honestly. Should those of us in the private sector kiss the feet of a gov’t worker – I mean you do put them on a pedestal after all.
Generally speaking, in a high paying private sector job (100k+), do you have any idea what happens when you don’t perform? Let me help…you get FIRED!
I can assure that where I work, the hiring process is VERY rigorous and thorough.
November 12, 2011 at 10:44 AM in reply to: CA Revenue comes in 6.5% lower than expected (and some common sense solutions) #732791Participantctr70: All of your suggestions are right on. If you really want to see some of what you propose become a reality, I’d suggest starting here:
(A California ballot measure to eliminate public employee collective bargaining):
ParticipantDid anyone take notice of the fact that the newly ‘appointed’ Greece Prime Minister is -surprise, surprise – A Central Banker.
Moral of the Story: As PM put a central bank policy to a vote and you’re history….
ParticipantThanks for the post.
My Conclusion: This country needs Ron Paul and now more than ever.
