I think he meant the biggest threat to the 1%.

The only true form of income equality that exists in the world is where everyone is poor. That's what unchallenged progressivism will lead to. In such an environment, it will be true that "you didn't build that." For no one will have built anything.

The hyperbolic statement of the Chamber should make it dismissible. There is nothing in Prof Warren's stances that would endanger any place of business. The Chamber is calling foul because playing on a level field is not part of their lexicon. The national chamber is made up of a who's who of those corporations who have shipped out jobs overseas and bad mouth any worker organization. They like things the way they are. They do not like being held accountable to their fellow citizens.

As expected, Junior Senator Scooter Brown, R-Wall Street, cries foul at the statement that eliminating the Bush Tax Cuts on the wealthiest Americans is a tax increase. He also cries foul at enabling qualified but unregistered voters to vote, because he understands that the only reason he won the special election was that it was a special election, sadly attended by only the very interested, and that he stands virtually no chance at all of winning this election if he has to stand on his own record. He would like to distance himself from the Romney/Ryan ticket, but he shares some of the same staff. Junior sure cries a lot.

Have you seen that commercial from the Warren camp with her saying "these poor students are going broke"? Drive's me crazy! Yes, kids are going broke, and she's part of the reason! She gets paid $350K for teaching one course at Harvard.

What a poor analogy. No one is trying to equalize incomes just decent wages for a day's work. This is what has slipped away. There are more citizens in poverty and the middle class has slipped backwards. Any productivity gains has gone almost solely to the top 10%. The present system is a zero sum game where there are winners and losers. An economic system built on such a scenario is doomed eventually to fail.

This is the most ridiculous hyperbole ever!

Warren is as much an unabashed socialist as Romney is an unabashed capitalist. The Chamber represents capitalists. Why is eveeryone so worked up about the headline? Based upon Warren's own words, she is not an advocate of free enterprise. And let's not forget that enterprise in the US is very heavily regulated. This is not the era of Robber Barons.

Let's see what would you expect from this right wing organization an endorsment for anyone else. The globe failed to mention that Mr Engstrom was a NEWT boy.. "Before joining the Chamber, Engstrom served as director of the Division of Political Education at the Republican National Committee (RNC) from 1998 to 2002, including a five-week stint on the Florida recount team for then-President-elect George W. Bush. Prior to the RNC, he worked with former Speaker Newt Gingrich's campaign in Roswell, Georgia." come on globe you can do better, making this seem like it was anything but what it was.

The phrase "threat to free enterprise" is almost always right-wing double-talk for "threat to our ability to continue our abusive business practices." Expect to hear this lie from the Romney-Ryan crowd on a regular basis as well.

WOW! Senator Scott Brown has received a very big endorsement, and if you notice there are many Massachusetts Democratic community leaders who are endorsing out incumbent Senator. The Chambers endorsement is worthy of a campaign commercial. The majority of welcoming sign to small town America are sponsored by the local Chamber of Commerce. On the other hand, there is Prof. Warren, who isn't shy about buying up foreclosed houses for resale or roll-over, if it means a profit for her. Nor is she concerned about claiming she is a 'minority' candidate if the ploy will elevate her higher in her job searches. . . . strange behaviors.

Professor Warren has never held a job other than as a teacher. She has never had to scrub for a buck. She has a high IQ and flourished behind ivy covered buildings. She writes long, academic studies about what other people do. She is highly critical and, somehow, the glasses hanging on her nose have provided a blurry, distorted image of reality. She professes instead of producing. Bottom line - she is the deciding vote Democrats need in the Senate in a close election. The charge against Senator Brown is that he is anti-environmental and will vote for tax cuts for those dastardly "Rich" people who run America's successful, job producing businesses. She hates the oil pipe line that would bring Canadian oil to America's refineries, lower gasoline prices and produce jobs. She says it would be an enviornmental disaster. Today's Globe's article on the wind farms off the Vinyard higlights her green supporters who prefer the quiet, unobstructed views without those clean energy producing windmills that turn and turn and turn. I watched her at an early rally where her arms waved and punched in emphasis for her hatred of banks and business and produced enough wind to power a factory.

You're confusing the U.S. Chamber of Commerce with local Chamber of Commerce groups, many of whom are not affiliated with the U.S. Chamber, which is primarily made up of large national corporations. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is not the voice of small business; it is the voice of the Fortune 500.

Everyone will be poor if Romney/Ryan/Brown succeed in gutting the middle class. This is their agenda: tax the middle class out of existence, suppress wages, and let the rich get richer.

Same old lie here: protecting consumers is a "threat to free enterprise." Nope, it's a threat to corporate fat cats!

Teaching isn't a job? Who taught you to read?

Teaching me to read was a really tough job. Protecting consumers is not a threat to free enterprise - at least in my opinion. I have a problem with defining "corporate fat cats". As a percentage of the population, they must be a very small group. I agree many are grossly overpaid. What concerns me is the election's focus on class hatred. When did we start hating people who became rich and successful? We used to hate criminals who hurt other people or broke laws that harmed society. O. K. let's raise taxes on everyone making over $250,000. Like that idea? I started a small business and built it up to a gross income of $279.00 annually, but did not incorporate for personal reasons. After paying salaries and benefits and expenses for truck and supplies, I grossed about $160,000. After I paid Federal and state taxes, I was no "fat cat" by any means, but I did well and enjoyed a nice home and family. So, where do you believe fat cats as a class begins?

The good old Chamber of Commerce. They've been supportive conservative candidates from the begining. They were created to combat the rising labor movement in 1912, they were opposed to child labor laws, the eight hour day, public education, and they supported leading segregartionists in the South. Who would want their support?

They're a capitalist front group!

"enterprise in the US is very heavily regulated"! Are you kidding? An no robber barons. The robber barons got away with murdering the US economy! WTFU!
