americans say their jobs stink

0 comments | Friday, March 16, 2007

This article is for those who worship at the altar of capitalism. It's a far from perfect system that needs human intervention to make it more agreeable to the majority of people. The free market will not solve the problem of more than half of Americans disliking their jobs. Intervention and regulation into conditions in the workplace might, though. Sorry righties, I know this runs against your dogma; but it's economic reality as I see it.

I thought Borat was one of the best comedies of all time, but as a movie it's not really great; so it didn't meet the standards for this list...
