Hi! Jerry,

I try to be fair and objective, and I appreciate your compliment about being open minded.

Sometimes you have to agree to disagree, shake hands, and remain friends.

I respectfully disagree as it is through free market capitalism, and minimal government intervention, will the American worker succeed. Obamacare is a good example of government intervention costing US workers salaries as employers are putting more workers on part-time jobs to help save money. IF there was less government intervention i.e. no Obamacare the workers would be receiving full-time employment and salary.

I do agree with governmental protections when it comes to labor laws for all. We do not need to have children or women working in sweat shops. Nor do we need men working without vacation pay. My grandfather, who was a railroad engineer from the early 1900s to 1950, did not receive vacation time until his job was unionized.

There has to be a happy medium. For me that means less government intervention.
