Funny, when I've been in groups that have elected a leader/representative, we always picked the wuss so they'd be the scapegoat if we screwed up. You could also lean on them if you wanted to get your way with a decision.

Simply put, the elections of the managerial officials would not be rigged, because that would make less money. Due to the fact that all employees are getting equal profits from the combined labors of the business, they will elect the boss that is in the best position on the balance. On one side, worker's rights, benefits, and salary, and the other, profits, stock, and growth of the business. Those that rig elections to elect poor bosses will make less money, and either change or go out of business.

I listened to that golf courses for the homeless bit. It's interesting- George Carlin sounds like the antithesis of Denis Leary. They have similar senses of humor, but are on opposite ends of the political spectrum. While what George Carlin said was funny, some of it isn't all that accurate. I enjoyed his rant on how the only black people you find at golf courses are carrying clubs- Obviously, though, he didn't do enough research- hasn't he ever heard of a few no-names such as "TIGER WOODS" or "VIJAY SINGH"?

Well, that was just a bit of my counter rant I guess. I found his graveyard idea amusing, but let's face it- we have traditions, some of which we like to keep. Just because it doesn't make sense, doesn't mean we should abolish it altogheter... like religion. It doesn't always make a whole lot of sense, but that doesn't mean we should get rid of it altoghether (although I am sure some would argue that).
