Message | Ok, since I am being too serious, I am gonna make a joke. A waiter asks a man, “May I take your order, sir?” “Yes,” the man replies. “I’m just wondering, exactly how do you prepare your chickens?” “Nothing special, sir. We just tell them straight out that they’re going to die.” |

Message | I am all for making money. I am not a mean evil guy trying to keep individuals out of the upper class. If a Cooperative Business makes money, and makes people successful, I am all for it. The incentive to work is there. You have to understand, I am not against communism by any means, It is a great idea on paper. However, I consider it a "utopian fantasy" which will never happen in real life. For that reason, I am whole heartedly against any communist legislation. Not because my heart isnt in the right place, but it just won't work. |

Message | The problem is that certain groups and classes of people are naturally lazy, and refuse to get an education or better themselves. |

Message | If workers choose to run a business, they should be able to. Anyone should be able to run a business really, in any manner they see fit. |
