Hello Everybody,

* Cheap-labor conservatives don't like social spending or our "safety
net". Why. Because when you're unemployed and desperate, corporations
can pay you whatever they feel like - which is inevitably next to
nothing. You see, they want you "over a barrel" and in a position to
"work cheap or starve".
* Cheap-labor conservatives don't like the minimum wage, or other
improvements in wages and working conditions. Why. These reforms undo
all of their efforts to keep you "over a barrel".
* Cheap-labor conservatives like "free trade", NAFTA, GATT, etc. Why.
Because there is a huge supply of desperately poor people in the third
world, who are "over a barrel", and will work cheap.
* Cheap-labor conservatives oppose a woman's right to choose. Why.
Unwanted children are an economic burden that put poor women "over a
barrel", forcing them to work cheap.
* Cheap-labor conservatives don't like unions. Why. Because when labor
"sticks together", wages go up. That's why workers unionize. Seems
workers don't like being "over a barrel".
* Cheap-labor conservatives constantly bray about "morality", "virtue", "respect for authority", "hard work" and other "values". Why. So they
can blame your being "over a barrel" on your own "immorality", lack of
"values" and "poor choices".
* Cheap-labor conservatives encourage racism, misogyny, homophobia and
other forms of bigotry. Why? Bigotry among wage earners distracts them,
and keeps them from recognizing their common interests as wage earners.
