Thom Hartmann: Would you like a side of the flu with your order?

[thomhartmann]

Watch out the next time you go out for dinner - because your waiter or waitress might have the flu and be coughing all over your food - because they aren't allowed to take sick days. Should we really be patronizing restaurants that would rather have sick employees than provide healthcare?

1. The wealthy and elite tout always what peons should do,

but the elite only tout what doesn't cost them a dime. Cheap mfers they are that tout only what others should sacrifice, while they scheme and politic and get richer.

The hypocrisy is the problem but never the solution. Mayor Bloomberg absurdly makes laws that forbid big cokes, and may suggest that service workers not go to work if they feel sick, but he and his billionaire ilk would never ever suggest that the rich should help them out if they were sick.


Progressive, Populist, Libertarian (for only we the people). Political divisiveness pushed by the elite are intended to divide average people while only they benefit.
