The more I think about it. It's really like we don't actually have a choice at all. We just get to influence the letter next to the name when that official shows up on CSPAN. Policy never moves.

I'm in the US but I've had employer's hold on to final paychecks out of spite and refuse to payout vacation time. My state department of labor took care of it after a few months.

I agree to be logically consistent you'd also have to make the same argument about Obama's unemployment numbers. Most of the growth lately has been in relatively low paying jobs.

I feel this way. It feels exploitative to me. This would fit better as a blog post after the product has gained a user base. It is definitely less likely to make me want to use it.

If you want to go down the route of protectionist laws you need look to further than the copyright and patent systems. Isn't that anti-free market in the same way accept more to the detriment of consumers as opposed to firms? It seems

Is it different? I mean the fizz buzz I've seen only requires the use of conditional statements and a understanding of mathematical operators. What kind of programming job would leave you unfamiliar with those?
