If you're willing to get shot for your country, tough shit, get to work!
But seriously, they want more plebes to work for less over more hours in shittier conditions. Come to Texas and you'll see that shit in full force. The state government doesn't run this place, the fucking corporations do and would gladly pay less then minimum wage if they could get away with it (and do I might add, if you wait or bus tables.) People who live in the areas being drilled for natural gas have to sign waivers that they can't reveal what's happened to their drinking water, pregnant women are highly encouraged not to eat seafood from the Gulf of Mexico, you can be fired for little to no reason, not to mention even if you work in a highly demanding field you can get shit canned just for joining a union. Oh, and do you wanna travel to another city? You can take the clogged up highway, or you can pay a toll tax to drive on a separate highway that your taxes funded after going thirty minutes out of your way; because there's next to zero rail lines.
While the corporations didn't get to buy the last election, and actually lost several seats in the process, they're still trying to implement this shit nationwide. Just look at the circus in Austin earlier this summer, even when people were spilling into the halls to tell the state reps not to pass that law, they still did it anyway, and fuck you if you get pregnant.
I motion we bring back the guillotine and use it on not only the corporate assholes who truly run the U.S., but every asshole in DC that's been bought out, regardless of party affiliation or office placement. Fuck those people.
