If Arfcommers were to achieve all of their goals what would it be like to live in America?

Without labor unions or affirmative action would all employees be treated fairly?

Without welfare, food stamps, government funded medical and social aid programs and free education, what would happen to the poor?

Without environmental regulations, OSHA laws and the TSA would we really be safe?

Without medical malpractice and products liability lawsuits what would happen when a doctor killed someone, or when children's toys were found to contain lead paint?

Without NPR, PBS, FCC regulations and broadcasting restrictions could there be any trusted source of information?

What would happen to those who are not Christians? What would happen to the disabled?

Would wages for everyday workers go up or down, with the influx of cheap labor?

Keep the emotion out of it.   Some of those things are desirable, but there is no money.



40% of the fed budget has to go.

Look at some other countries that don't have these things and you'll see your answer.

United States of America 1776––––-1861. It was difficult sometimes but we were better off for it.  Some Free People (for the most part). You could move out West if you did not like the lands  East of the Mississippi and their politics.

the employer in a capitalistic country will make or break due to how they treat their employees/turnover rate and their product. You don't treat your workers good, they can fuck  you in return

There is something someone can do in order to be productive. My uncle is 57 years old can't have heart surgery anymore because they say it will kill him. He's in bad shape, but he still holds a job.

Yes wages have gone down for the jobs they work!
We need to be competitive. You have China's people working for two dollars an hour, we can't sustain paying people huge salaries and lavish pensions. We'll kill ourselves out of work. That also goes for .Gov

If Arfcommers were to achieve all of their goals what would it be like to live in America?



Without labor unions or affirmative action would all employees be treated fairly? We don't hate labor unions per se, we just hate forced unionism.



Without welfare, food stamps, government funded medical and social aid programs and free education, what would happen to the poor? They'd either get jobs or emigrate elsewhere.



Without environmental regulations, OSHA laws and the TSA would we really be safe? The functions of OSHA and TSA could be handled internally per the private sector, e.g. the airlines should fund it since it is their business that would suffer if terrorists got on their planes. Only difference is I would give them discrimination lawsuit immunity. Environmental oversight could be handled per nominal litigation, only difference is that the environazis would have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that someone's actions were environmentally unsafe, e.g. no more *precautionary principle*.



Without medical malpractice and products liability lawsuits what would happen when a doctor killed someone, or when children's toys were found to contain lead paint? How about a "loser pays" principle? That would get rid of most frivilous lawsuits. Other than that, there is an old adage of "let the buyer beware" which should be the first objective of product regulation. Consumers should take responsibility for what they buy and how they use said products.



Without NPR, PBS, FCC regulations and broadcasting restrictions could there be any trusted source of information? How can you or anyone of intelligence implicitly trust news media that is funded and thus controlled by the state? You have this one ass-backwards.



What would happen to those who are not Christians? What would happen to the disabled? If what? Not sure where you're going with this one - suffice it to say there is no such thing as "Christian Sharia" as alleged by a certain anti-Christian bigot/troll on this board. All I can say for sure is that if you are not a Christian, you are missing out on some pretty important spiritual intangibles.



Would wages for everyday workers go up or down, with the influx of cheap labor? Influx from where? Are you talking about illegal immigration? Temporary migrant workers? A return to slavery? Or is this a stab at non-union workers in traditional closed shops?

1)Yes, if not they can go to a different job
2)Charities will help out, or people will get motivated to work and not be poor

3)Employees dying isn't a good business model. There's also lawsuits that can make responsible people pay for an negligence.

4)No problems with mal practice lawsuits

 

5)Uh, yeah

6)Does not compute

7)Depends on the business, industry and business cycle
