I agree that both sides sold out. But conservative ideology has the longevity of the ages. The world simply would not have even made it this far with nature favoring liberal ideology.

What has helped us survive is the constant battle between two extremes as their aren't nearly enough people with common sense to campaign (lie) their way into positions of leadership.

I was referring to humanity and nature as a whole, not politically. i.e.; survival of the fittest, for example.

Nature and humanity both would have never gotten up to this point if both followed a liberal doctrine.

Nature would have failed had it had to wait for those who couldn't keep up.

Humanity would have long sense expended itself forcing producers to sustain non producers.

The overwhelming history of mankind is filled exactly with what we have today...
Those who want everything in the name of self-interest.
Those who want everything in the name of laziness.
Those who stand in the middle.

History is as richly laden with personality as is today.
If we were to chronicle last weeks events we would quickly run out of hard drives.

In one post I was answering another and you as usual missed the point.

IN the other I was making fun of Marginal Utility as a never ending argument.

I did receive a call from the National Prostitution Association complaining about being classified as UNSKILLED !

ALSO Offered a demo to prove otherwise !!! Now I lay me down to sleep.......

Since when men follow the conservative course as you outlined above, and since those men tend to be the Hitlers and Stalins of the world, I think I will stick with the liberals who see man as rising above the laws of the jungle and was given self consciousness in order to do that. The goal is to rise about the lower life forms, instead of being one of them. Let's just call it human exceptionalism, and the highest natural order. Conservative have no place in this higher natural order. They belong with the lower life forms, like slugs and maggots.

Perhaps prostitution as a whole (no pun intended) is not entirely UNSKILLED. But lets face it, even a blow job done for the very first time has never been met with failure. How skilled must one be to get favorable results at the very first attempt.

Oh, I don't chide you for your want of it, only your expectation that it will succeed. there is nothing in-noble about being a bleeding heart liberal. Only the gullible naivete' that it will end with the impact you hoped.

Hitler and Stalin were the left wingers of their day.

Hitler and Stalin differed on a few issues.
Stalin was determined to bring Russia into the 20th century and expressed no overt desire to conquer the world.
Stalin was as lacking in emotion as could be and had no overt loyalty to anyone but himself.
Nobody under Stalin became wealthy by serving the State.

No one accused Stalin of wanting to conquer the world, though communism under the USSR certainly expressed the desire to make the world into a communist state. Both Hitler and Stalin were for strong central government dictating to the states of provinces in the rest of the country which is the primary intention of left wingers today. They give a lot of lip service about altruistic motivation but in reality all they want is central control from cradle to grave. No one becoming wealthy is also the goal of left wingers in the US as well, which in the long run will cause our economy to crumble just like it has in every other example of strong left wing government experiments.

While I am not currently working in the restaurant business I have over 30 years of experience in it having worked at one time or another every position possible and I have to say its very interesting some of the perceptions being presented about waiters and waitress. The reason a waitress earns a wage of $2.50 an hour or around that (depending on the state) is because it is a tipped job, some of which is taxed since a percentage of their tips on credit cards are taken by the government. Which is why I usually tip in cash when I pay with a card. Depending on the restaurant AND the server a waiter can make a lot of money. The problem is most of it is in cash and cash is easily spent. For those who have little to no experience in the restaurant business I would recommend reading http://www.amazon.com/Waiter-Rant-Th...ds=waiter+rant which is probably one of the better books about waiting tables, its also a very good read. It along with Anthony Bourdain’s Amazon.com: Kitchen Confidential Updated Edition: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly (P.S.) (9780060899226): Anthony Bourdain: Books are probably the two best books to read if you wanted to understand the restaurant business.

I do not consider a person with 6 months of waiting experience an experienced waiter.

tashi deleks,

I've been serving in some capacity for 10 years.

It makes no sense to pay these workers less than what the minimum wage is for everyone else.

Americans wake up every morning and rush to diners all across the country, with some hard working mostly female servers who work for peanuts. They top up your coffee a bunch of times and if you're a regular they get your order in fast and know just the way you like things. It's real, physical work and good servers are organized and work smart, just notice the next time you're at Denny's or Applebees when it's super crazy busy, and watch how good the typical mom-aged server is, doing three or four things at once. It's like listening to music.

For getting you on your way so you can be on time for work in the morning or lunch, servers are workers, too, and deserve the same minimum wage everywhere.

Hitler made a lot of current Peruvians very wealthy; not very Left Wingy.
