What a bunch of BS. "There are laws now to protect the worker". Yeah, great laws, just ask all the employees at Enron who lost their retirement about how wonderful these laws are.

Look overseas and see how well big business treats it's workers in poor countries. The company I work for pays the laborers in Brazil $12.00 a day. No, they wouldn't exploit people today if they could.

The laws are changed at the whim of big business. Just look at Bush's latest gift to big business, the elimination of overtime for 1000's of workers. What a wonderful law.

Look at the weakened OSHA laws, done courtesy of the Bush administration. The laws are changed at the request of big business that contributes huge sums of money to Bush.

Business has a terrible track record of abuse throughout history, and to say that there are laws now that would stop these abuses is ludicrous. The laws are nothing if not stringently enforced. It's estimated that for OSHA to inspect every business in the US would take 84 years at the current staffing level. Great enforcement of existing laws.
