<0> and, hey! it's TIME
<1> i don't know, it amazes me sometimes that anything can be sold for a dime or whatever
<2> not much is
<0> Linus: the miracle of modern economics
<1> who wakes up one day and declares, I'm gonna make cheap*** molded plastic kids toys!
<2> but there is what is called in retail 'the loss leader'
<0> how do you make a profit when you lose ten cents on every sale? "we make it up on volume"
<3> "loss leaders" are very common in the grocery industry
<4> god I have to get the **** out of LA.
<4> http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-immig26mar26,0,7628611.story?coll=la-home-headlines
<0> my checking account is a "loss leader"
<1> i don't see much volume selling, eg, s plastic googly eyed monkey on a string, 2" tall
<5> salstress: whats wrong with that protest?
<0> salstress: "Escape from Los Angeles" ... sorry, no way ...
<6> The "immigrants" are rather worried that something will be done.
<1> this has nothing to do with loss leaders
<6> So this is a nice way to influence Washington.
<0> Linus: you'd be amazed at the crap people will by when baby says "I want!"
<5> I hope washington cant be influenced
<0> buy
<4> toomey, what is wrong with that protest is that people who are breaking our laws and are citizens of other countries are marching on OUR streets telling us what to do with OUR laws. **** THEM.
<1> damn, whats that one catalog sales company that sells nothing but useless kids crap like stickers and cheap little prizes
<2> I don't believe Linus- has seen a 10 cent toy in 30 yeras
<2> years*
<1> OcDoc, first you must get shelf space
<5> salstress: theres plenty of white people in those protests
<1> from the grocer
<6> salstress: Tell us how you really feel. Don't hold back.
<4> toomey, what the **** are you talking about you racist ***hole?
<4> white people.
<4> idiot.
<7> heh
<5> Im just sayin white people
<6> toomey: Plenty of white liberals.
<2> hmmm, so where does the Crash movie fit in all this
<1> gloriae, youve never been to a halloween shop?
<0> gloriae: in the rear
<4> white people as opposed to WHAT??>??? are you claiming US CITIZENS ARE ALL WHITE?
<8> Linus- has a ten cent toy in his pants
<7> Ted "Crash" Kennedy?
<1> inflated at that!
<5> you are trying to make it sound like it is 500,00 illegals protesting
<5> when most arent
<4> IT IS
<4> read the article.
<8> it's only worth a penny now though
<9> toomey: are you in the US
<5> this article is liberal media trash
<1> dirigible category
<10> toomey, the majority are illegals in that protest
<2> that's $#!+ that's been in warehouses since 1975, they've been trying to unload it every year
<4> toomey, what right does ANY illegal alien have to tell US how to run our country????
<2> it costs money to keep $#!+ in warehouses
<8> zero
<0> Linus calls his "dirigible" "Goofy"
<10> toomey, sure ther are some show take their issue, but it's clearly not the majority.
<8> any illegal aliean caught protesting should be deported
<8> *alien
<6> We won't deport them.
<1> homeo oh homeo wherefore art thou
<5> salstress: Bush says they keep the economy going, they are vital
<4> Bush is wrong.
<4> answer my question
<1> no, its called tin cent
<8> we should deport any protestor who is not here legally
<5> doing jobs americans dont want to do
<4> answer my question toomey
<1> answer him dammit!
<5> What right, I guess they dont have any rights
<0> salstress: that would be an important question if it were true that anyone were or ever COULD "run" our country
<10> toomey, if illegals weren't here those jobs would pay more and Americans would take them.
<11> US-Male: how.. xenophobic of you..
<1> answer NOW: more than ever
<0> were = was
<6> My grandfather started working in coal mines at 14. I hate this "doing jobs that Americans won't do" bull****.
<5> FreeMrkts was saying that there arent enough americans to take those jobs
<4> exactly. how dare they demand ANYTHING from us. they should be summarily drop kicked to the nearest border.
<8> toomey: they don't have "rights" -- they're here illegally
<1> broguth to you by CREEP
<1> brah
<8> by definition
<11> Tailor: hrm, by that logic we should impose tariffs on all foriegn imports... how long have you been a socialist / economic protectionist tailor?
<6> It's insulting.
<1> was that the most appropo acronym ever?!
<8> liberT: how moronic of you
<12> I think they have the same right to tell us how to run our country as we have in iraq.
<0> salstress: give it a try ... let us know how it goes
<1> CREEP
<1> rofl
<10> liberT, actually that's apples and oranges you are comparing.
<4> yeah, OcDoc, I can't. Our politicians have betrayed us. We are ****ed.
<0> salstress: have you ever noticed how the most strident demands are almost always for "someone" to do "something"?
<5> TheTailor: do you disagree with FreeMrkts in regards to immigrant labor
<11> Tailor: nope, government imposed economic protections are just that; either you have a free market or you do not.
<7> ohh good lord some people can do nothing but whine
<8> now, if you can get here LEGALLY, you should be able to protest
<10> toomey, I do.
<8> especially if you are a citizen
<13> hi
<11> Tailor: protecting labor from cheaper foriegn sources is not different then doing so for goods themselves.
<0> as a US citizen I want our laws changed
<4> OcDoc, uh, no, and that has nothing to do with what I am saying. I know exactly what to do. This is one of themost basic, easy problems to solve.
<5> but you just said americans could take those jobs, and he thinks otherwise
<5> or has said so
<10> liberT, this isn't an economic issue, it's a matter of LEGAL immigration, LAW.
<0> salstress: yup ... change our idiotic laws
<11> Tailor: odd, earlier you mentioned jobs going to americans who can be paid more.. make up your mind.
<4> uh, no. our laws are fine as is.
<8> but illegals -- should have no right to protest. That's retarded. We have a law which says they should not be here at this moment
<0> let anyone who wants to work work for whatever wages anyone is willing to pay
<11> OcDoc: AGREED.
<8> how can you go into a country illegally, and then "protest" ? lol
<1> why do people get so annoyed if someone's pov doesnt fit like their gloves?
<10> toomey, I'm aware of FM's positoin on the issue, it's the only issue I ever disagreed with concerning him.
<0> stop supporting the losers with welfare
<0> including the inmmigrant losers
<11> im tired of you socialists trying to protect domestic labor and goods, get with the global program people.
<8> the ****ing BALLS people have is amazing
<11> OcDoc: agreed.
<10> liberT, that was in answer to someone else.
<4> there are many things we could do that would solve the problem, and EACH THING would go a long way toward fixing the problem. 1. fine employers who hire illegals. 2. do not give services to illegals. 3. deport illegals when found 4. secure the borders 5. stop welfare
<1> the amt of acrimony over others' opinions is dumbfounding
<0> USMale: it's pretty rude ... but actually it's the socialists who organized the protests
<4> all of those things could be done with CURRENT LAW
<11> Salstress: hiring illegals is not a problem, it's business.
<8> OcDoc that figures
<4> that makes no sense liberT
<11> Salstress: I hire illegals, so **** it.
<10> liberT, tell ya what, dociument the workers and bring in all you want.
<5> you hire illegals? why
<11> Salstress: you dont like free markets?
<8> OcDoc: but, consistent with actions of socialist groups for 50 years
<1> sometimes i feel that the divisiveness in american politics is a video game controlled by al qaeda
<0> USMale: you don't think illegals would march in public alone, do you?
<8> or at least 40 years
<11> toomey: because it is my right to do business with whoever I want to.
<4> free markets are fine. do you believe a country should have borders?
<14> liberT is banned for 10 minutes (Requested by TheTailor - Reason: Calm yourself )
<8> OcDoc: no, they didn't all just wake up and decide to go to teh same place spontaneously
<1> liberT and just tits for all
<8> true
<6> Isn't it illegal to hire illegals? :)
<0> USmale: someone was taking pics at the rally and will quietly go about rounding them up later ... big risk for an illegal
<5> its against channel rules to hire illegals :)
<15> salstress: you need to make sure that FreeMrkts sees that article...that's a good one
<8> well, I think their risk was pretty low
<10> toomey :-)
<1> gov pete wilson led the way in allowing ca agribusinesses to hire illegals
<8> 500K, hard to round up
