32. Well here's the question I have
If you, the worker, provide the service to your employer that your employer finds valuable enough that he can sell at a profit.... And "its your money, you earned it. It was not gifted by your employer...."
Then why even work for that employer? Why not cut out the middle man and work for yourself? Why let someone else take advantage of the fruits of your labor?
Ouch.
I wonder if BigDaddy will get any responses?

36. So where am I supposed to get the money and time to start a factory
You need seed money for that. Where do I get seed money? Do i live in a hole in the ground for 20 years while I save up my wage?
Aye, there's the rub. Some of those black-hearted, evil employers have done exactly that, or some variation thereof. They saved, invested wisely, sacrificed, worked their ass off for long hours and took risks with what they had, all to build something which resulted in their being able to provide a job for you. You did none of that. You just walked in and filled out an application, maybe got some education or training beforehand that made you more marketable.
So after all that time, effort, risk and expense the company owner is just supposed to fall down thanking you for gracing his or her company with your presence and share equally any profit he makes with you? You arrogant little DU bastards wouldn't work for me for ten minutes with your entitlement attitudes.
