prurigroI dunno if I'd call it a conspiracy as I'd suggest that its simply not in the best interest of those forking up the money to supply servicesDec 02 03:16

DaemonFCthat's what typically happened in the United States before 1993Dec 02 05:55
DaemonFCdepending on whatever the laws in your state wereDec 02 05:55
DaemonFCsome states already had similar lawsDec 02 05:55
schestowitzoh I forgot to post IRC logsDec 02 05:56
DaemonFCIndiana was one of the ones that let you employer fire you if you had your leg broken and couldn't return to workDec 02 05:56
schestowitzfor 2 days nowDec 02 05:56
DaemonFCthe FMLA says that every employee has to have their job held for them for up to 12 weeks out of any year over a medical emergencyDec 02 05:57
DaemonFCas long as your doctor says you're unfit for work, they can't fire you unless you're gone more than 12 weeks out of the yearDec 02 05:57
DaemonFCmost large employers lobbied against that lawDec 02 05:58
DaemonFCbecause they view their employees as being as expendable as the law allowsDec 02 05:58
DaemonFCFMLA doesn't say the elave has to be paid though, so unless you have short term disability insurance, most people can't afford to use that law anywayDec 02 06:00
DaemonFCit's another one of those protectionist laws that is there to make sure that it mostly covers professionals who can afford to go without work or has short term disability insurance anywayDec 02 06:01
DaemonFCjust like there are other laws assuring that those people are exempt from foreign competition for their jobsDec 02 06:02
DaemonFC*haveDec 02 06:02
DaemonFCthe super rich only amount to about half a percent of the populationDec 02 06:02
DaemonFCso they extend some limited protections to form an outward bubble that has a grab bag full of stuff to influence enough voters to keep their preferred politicians in powerDec 02 06:03
DaemonFCI kind of view FMLA with no mandate to offer short term disability insurance as one of themDec 02 06:04
DaemonFCnobody working a typical low wage job can afford to miss more than a few days of workDec 02 06:04
DaemonFCso the law can't exist to protect themDec 02 06:04
DaemonFCthat being said, I'm glad my mom is one of the people on the outer edge of the bubble that that law is there to protect people withinDec 02 06:05

DaemonFChe cited in a complaint dated June of 2005 that "Linux members" conspired to deny him his rights under the "Religious Freedom Restoration Act", which was found to be unconstitutional and invalid in 1997Dec 02 06:32
DaemonFChe was apparently upset that someone made fun of him for using peyote Dec 02 06:33

sebsebsebziggyfish: Linux Mint, well and possbily Mageia 1 even, but Mageia 2 next year and oh yeah totallyDec 02 06:34
sebsebsebziggyfish: oh and PC Linux OS can be good for newbies as well, loads of choiceDec 02 06:34
DaemonFCwhich was dropped pursuant to a settlement stating that Merkey agreed that he would refrain from using peyote again unless and until the US federal drug laws change to remove it from the Schedule I controlled substance listDec 02 06:34
DaemonFC:)Dec 02 06:34
DaemonFCtherefore, he signed a settlement which agreed that he had no legal right to use it in the first placeDec 02 06:35
DaemonFCthen sued "Linux members" because some guy made fun of him for using peyote, which violated religious freedoms that are in fact, not recognized by the US federal government or the state of UtahDec 02 06:36
ziggyfishsebsebseb: going to give linux mint a goDec 02 06:36
sebsebsebziggyfish: yep Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu, but it's Ubuntu done rightDec 02 06:36

DaemonFCThe current system of taxation, in many cases, provides incentives for illegal immigrants and companies that employ them. It is estimated that approximately 5 million illegal immigrants are paid off the books ("under the table") in cash allowing employee and employer to avoid paying federal taxes estimated at $35 billion a year.[50] Advocates also claim the FairTax would provide incentive for illegal immigrants to legalize as they would otherwise Dec 02 07:48
