No, there is no equal. You are right. Our government approved to go to Iraq and waste hundreds of billions of dollars and lose lives. Our government approved doing the same in Vietnam. Our government wastes our money and comes back for more, we send out stupid foreign aid that accomplishes little but make despots wealthy, it never reaches the people. Yeah, our goverment is perfect...
Take a look at the authority that has been given our Presidents by congress to spend so much money, and to have so many die. Government is responsible for stealing money and many, many deaths, companies are responsible for enriching themselves excessively and employing the people of this country, as well as pay taxes.
We have a great country being run by people that are bought and paid for, that promote stupid ideas at our expense instead of managing our money that they take effectively. That is wrong. They would be fired for their job performance if they were employed.
Look at the candidates, should they be paid when they decide to leave their jobs and job search? They should be able to take a leave of absense, but it should not be paid. Why are they being paid to do a job they were elected for, when they do not even show up? Is that right and fair to the people paying their salary? Should we then not do the same in business? You say you are starting a company, So if you employee wants another job, are you going to pay that person to go after it? |
