Why would "smart" employers stop with "some" benefits? All the while they satiate themselves with tickets to the very suites to watch the game and the best caviar and washrooms. Is that the best they can get out of themselves? Why is it when I read a post by someone supporting the left, the "Anti-Capitalist" mentality always comes through?

Michelino...IF the employees don't like whatever benefits they receive from their "mean ole' capitalist company", then IN the US, they are certainly free to use their OWN money to start a business. They can do it all. ... .Fund it, manufacture the product, market it, advertise it, sell it, do the accounting work themselves, check with a lawyer to make sure they are doing everything correctly, pay whatever taxes are due......then pay for the equipment and the rent, and utilities, office furniture, expenses, phone, computers, etc etc etc..... THEN, if there is much left, they can do what they think those 'rich ole' capitalists' do.....they can spend their left over money on benefits and salaries for themselves. After their taxes as employees, of course.
