First I want to thank Carnacki on his diary about the objectification and sexism that women face in the world today. It was a thoughtful, well-expressed diary and was a welcome addition to the several insightful diaries that Steven D has written about women's issues.

To mark the day here at the pond, I present to you the comments of several of our presidents regarding labor. Make of them what you will. Read more... (8 comments, 810 words in story) by Kahli
