News Notes

A few news stories this weekend caught my attention, and none seemed enough for an entire post -- so I just decided to combine all their stupidity in one post. So here we go!

1. Toothpaste from China deadly . Did you catch this one? The reports that say that Chinese-made toothpaste contains diethylene glycol -- which happens to be an ingredient in antifreeze. But know what I found most interesting? Not the poison-related factor, but the list of companies that use Chinese-made toothpaste:

Cooldent Fluoride, Cooldent Spearmint, Cooldent ICE, Dr. Cool, Everfresh Toothpaste, Superdent Toothpaste, Clean Rite Toothpaste, Oralmax Extreme, Oral Bright Fresh Spearmint Flavor, Bright Max Peppermint Flavor and ShiR Fresh Mint Fluoride Paste.

Wow. That's a lot of Chinese-made toothpaste. I find it amazing that companies actually spend less to produce toothpaste in China and ship it to America than they would to produce it in America. Could that be related to the massive costs associated with hiring people in America -- Like exorbitant minimum-wage laws; restrictive workplace laws; medical insurance requirements; and massive liability insurance requirements? I'm just asking.

2. 28th arrest for Drunk Driving. This fellow got arrested for drunk driving in New Mexico for the 28th time. I'm sure everyone was quick to condemn him. After all, he's just a drunk -- and DUI is worse than murder in today's society. So, what was his BAC on any of those charges? Sorry, they're not saying. Could it have been .08? It's certainly likely. And what's the increased odds of someone that blows .08 to injure someone? None. Sorry MADD wackos, there's simply no increased risk at .08. To actually reach a point where the increase of danger to others, you need to be up near .17 or above. That's facts, no matter what MADD, who wants prohibition, says. Know how many accidents this man caused in his 28 arrests? ZERO. He was never actually a danger to anyone.

3. Employer Dress Codes Illegal. Oh, you didn't see that headline this weekend? It was there, but you might have seen it worded differently. But that's what the judge says. If you want to wear any clothes that you want to work, it doesn't matter what the workplace says you must wear. According to a federal judge, an employer simply is not allowed to dictate any dress code of any employee -- all you have to do is claim it's your religion to wear your underpants on the outside of your clothes and no workplace can fire you for doing it. Seriously.

1 Apparently, that judge lives in the typical liberal fantasy world where companies are evil. Prior to any interview, I set the expectations, which include a dress code. When an employee accepts the position, he or she is accepting a dress code. If they do not want to wear the designated clothing (shirts provided free), we have every legal right to promote them to customer. But apparently not, in Liberal world. It's kinda funny, since usually, liberals want everyone to be the same.

2 "It's kinda funny, since usually, liberals want everyone to be the same." Absolutely hilarious. I'm a dress code flunk out though... I couldn't see having to wear $300 suits, panty hose, and high heeled shoes to work every single day when the men didn't have to wear $300 suits and pantyhose and high heeled shoes everyday. Yes, I'm perfectly serious, it was in the written rules. Under the men's dress code section it said: "You must wear socks." And no, it wasn't some high priced callgirl establishment. It was a Counseling Center. What a waste of a degree... Ogre, I'm at a point where I think I want to just let the governments implode, then those of us with some brains can pick up the pieces. I know it's going to be hard, long, and rough road but the alternative is to keep fighting against their stupidity and getting nowhere fast. They have the "deck stacked" against us. The MSM,the hidden agendas... and so on. It's not apathy, although it may seem like it, but patience that I'm aspiring to now. This country will implode and soon by the look of things.

3 Indeed, I agree with you, Steph. It's going to have to get worse before it gets better because the system is made now so it cannot be repaired. I wonder if we shall see the total collapse of the government in my lifetime. There's so many people that are willing to work hard to support and prop up the socialist tendencies of this government that I'm afraid it's going to continue for some time. And Teach, you just think you have the right to fire those employees. If their religion disagrees with your dress code, it's YOU that must change -- at least according to that judge.
