Comment Re:LAW? (Score 1) 426

I'm sorry.
I'm asking for a citation for a specific assertion by the OP
"By law a full time position must be staffed by an employee. "

that is a BAD statement, and not a LAW

I can have a contract worker do 40 hrs a week without them being an employee.

in fact, I do.

Comment no solution you will like (Score 1) 426

There is a solution

income and expense parity, globally.

Everyone living at 2nd world levels.
(except a very small, very privileged minority of 'owners')
it ain't pretty.. but that IS what free trade will end at eventually,
with pain, bloodshed, revolts, and agony on the way....

the only way to maintain the first world experience will directly conflict free trade.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeppelin_NT

"The Zeppelin NT ("Neue Technologie", German for new technology) is a class of helium-filled airships being manufactured since the 1990s by the German company Zeppelin Luftschifftechnik GmbH (ZLT) in Friedrichshafen.[1] The initial model is the NT07. The company considers itself the successor of the companies founded by Ferdinand von Zeppelin which constructed and operated the very successful Zeppelin airships in the first third of the 20th century. There are, however, a number of notable differences between the Zeppelin NT and the airships of those days, as well as between the Zeppelin NT and usual non-rigid airships known as blimps. The Zeppelin NT is classified as a semi-rigid airship.[2]"
