DUmmies Angered over How Business Works

Ooooh they get so steaming mad when companies don't want to go along with their commie plans for the country, when they won't lay down obediently and hand over $100K salaries with $50K benefits to the DUmmies for a cush job.  They're so cute when they stamp their feet out of pure powerlessness.

3M CEO slams Obama as 'anti-business'

by Ken Sweet, contributing writerFebruary 28, 2011: 1:41 PM ET

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- The head of industrial conglomerate 3M (MMM, Fortune 500) blasted the president as being "anti-business," claiming Obama has not done anything to improve the White House's relationship with Corporate America.

- snip -

"We know what his instincts are ... he is anti business," Buckley said in an interview that ran late Sunday. The interview comes as the White House pushes its pro-business agenda. Last week, the Council on Jobs and Competitiveness held its first meeting to brainstorm ideas on job growth and boosting the economy.

- snip -

Buckley said his company, which makes thousands of products ranging from Post-It notes to Scotch Tape, "will do business where it's good and friendly."

Despite the recent public positions of other major business leaders, Buckley says he's not alone. "There is a sense among companies that (the U.S.) is a difficult place to do business," he told the FT. "We've got a real choice between manufacturing in Canada or Mexico -- which tend to be more pro-business -- and America."

37. I'd say nationalize their physical plants and.........
 give no interest/low interest loans to appropriate unions to reopen the facilities as worker owned co-ops.

41. Where do you get 1%?
 3 M's profit last year was 4.1 billion and if they paid 1.7 billion in taxes that would be a rate of 41.5%. 
:lmao:  FreakinDJ is the biggest dolt.

About time the gun-shy, conflict-averse corporate world stopped pretending it's free unicorns all around and mentioned the Emperor seems a bit underdressed.

I don't think people making right around six figure annual compensation were exactly what Karlo Marx had in mind when he wrote about 'Class struggle.'

Economics for DUmbasses 101: Pass-through costs

1. Suppose your favorite glass bong blower lived in a state that imposed a pipe tax to pay for free healthcare.

2. Suddenly the bongs you buy are twice what you used to pay.

3. But there is another store from more hospitable climes that still charges the original price with comparable quality.

4. You realize the pass-through cost difference buys a lot of Cheetos.

5. You must now either quit buying Cheetos or support higher taxes but the local grocer depends on your Cheetos consumption so you may put him and his employees out of business.

6. If the taxes continue to increase you may have to start buying skunk weed.

7. Or maybe the glass blower says, "Screw you!" to the man and moves his operation meaning you can continue to buy his goods, plus the crippy bud and cheetos.

Hey asshat, ya ever look up his tax rate? Ya can't even find it in the little book you use. After all, it only goes up to $99,000. After that, it's a portion of your income. What he pays in taxes would keep your whole web site in cheetos for the next 100,000 years!

Moron!

According to the idiot in the video, the owner of Noodles Restaurant needs to abdicate his noodleship to his employees.

I think I just thought of a new Twitter name!  @noodleship

Who's "we" DUmmie? The more we "give"? What do we "give" them DUmmie? Our business? You have the choice to buy from whomever you want. Don't like the prices or the companies, then buy from someone else.
DUmmies and basic economics/business sense are just complete polar opposites. NOT.A.CLUE.
