• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Stop blaming Blacks!

Are you serious? Do you really value the almighty dollar over human beings?

"For the love of money is the root of all evils. Some people in reaching for it have strayed from the faith and stabbed themselves with many pains." 1 Timothy 6:10

"Your conduct must be free from the love of money and you must be content with what you have..." Hebrews 13:5a

Employees do the real work, investors do nothing concrete.
I think you misunderstood my post. Or else I am misunderstanding what you are trying to say.
I am against the "profit above all" point of view that I described. (But most mainline economists seem to be for it.)

My mistake. I misread your post. I apologize.

Both are important. The difference; sink or swim, the employee gets paid regardless if the company sinks or not; the investor does not. In order for a company to attract investors, they have to provide a reasonable rate of return. In order for the company to attract good employees, they have to provide a decent wage and working conditions. When those two clash, it is the company that decides which is more important.
