Kiosks don't get irritable, aren't late or tired, perform consistently and accurately; you don't have to worry about rising compensation.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Carl's Jr. CEO Andy Puzder is upsetting progressives with plans to automate restaurant operations. https://t.co/hgeild3HAh— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Puzder notes that he's seen restaurants where customers wait in line for a kiosk rather than go to an available cashier.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
I almost always do self-service checkout when I go to Home Depot or buy groceries at WalMart. The self-service kiosks usually have a queue.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
WalMart needs to similarly engineer its pharmacy operations; I do like their texting my cellphone when my prescription is available.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
I don't know how much of an effort the Cruz campaign has made in the NE/mid-Atlantic primaries tomorrow. Trump has NY-style leads in CT,RI— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
After tomorrow, Cruz will be in the same boat as Kasich,fighting for a second ballot. That explains the rumored alliance in targeting states— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Trump will win the majority of delegates tomorrow, to the point he probably will need less than 50% of remaining delegates to get to 1237.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
There is some evidence in polling that Republican voters in the May/June cycle may be capitulating to an inevitable Trump nomination.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
It was clear that Cruz was in trouble when RINO Trump outmaneuvered him on Super Tuesday in the Deep South. Trump may have closed it re: CO.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Trump snatched victory from Cruz' better organized campaign in CO with his phony, manipulative populist pitch that Cruz "stole" delegates.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
At one point Cruz was surging in California, and I would have thought Indiana was his. Ohio neighbor Kasich has been splitting non-Trump.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Hillary Clinton doesn't want Charles Koch's tepid support for her candidacy due to religious differences. She is a Climate Change Alarmist.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
I don't use my Twitter account often to discuss celebrity gossip. But Kelly Ripa's tantrum on not being briefed over her co-host's new job?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Kelly Ripa, get a job in the real world! I would fire you so fast over breaching your contract. You're making millions for boring TV shows.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Okay, why is it that a US Court of Appeals has to decide the legitimacy of a football player's suspension over the use of unauthorized balls— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
If the US court system is going to decide sports issues, I want to appeal the exclusion of Shoeless Joe Jackson and Pete Rose from the HOF.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
I was listening to the ABC News interview with Charles Koch. The journalist ran the whole interview from a leftist talking point perspective— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
It's hard for people to understand that that Koch's politics are really aimed at reforming a corrupted political system. Not perpetuating it— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
People don't seem to remember: the Dems controlled the House from 1932 through 1994, except for a couple of terms. They built this system.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
The government has been very good for my siblings, including a compliance manager, two in civil service, a city librarian, and a tax CPA.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
As for me, I worked for 3 state universities over 5 years, and probably most IT consulting clients over the last 20 years in public sector.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Yet here I am with views largely consistent with the Koch brothers. Why? They haven't paid me squat. In fact, I lost a gig because of them.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
I was working through an agency which masked the client,a typical policy designed to protect their interests.All I knew was the client in KS— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
The agency finally authorized me to make travel plans and revealed the client. I have a relative who works for a subsidiary in the area.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Instead, the relative goes apeshit, screaming about the Koch nepotism policy. The whole project for me goes dead;the agency cut off contact.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
I didn't have a fallback gig & to this day I'm pissed. I didn't learn of the position through the relative & would not have worked with him.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
The relative years later told me that the Kochs had modified their nepotism policy;I suggested their doing something anatomically impossible— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
So when I praise Charles Koch's political philosophy, it's despite my personal feelings. I'm not a billionaire or even a millionaire.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
We pro-liberty folks are the ones who are REALLY looking out for the folks. We don't want your kids tethered to failing schools.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
We didn't set up state barriers, expensive mandates and policies, bureaucratic paperwork or tax breaks for health insurance providers— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Big companies have the size and scope to cope with an expanding empire of business regulations. Big Government is a competitive weapon.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
So when idiots like Trump, Clinton and Sanders bash global trade, who loses? US consumers (purchase options) and businesses (consumer base).— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Just as China is transitioning into more of a consumer-based economy, the retard Trump is threatening a trade war. China has 4X consumers.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Indiana coaching legend Bobby Knight is stumping for Trump in Indiana. Maybe if Trump pisses him off, he'll throw a chair. With Trump in it.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Who wants to wager that Trump and Knight are going to talk "winning" all night long? Invite Charlie Sheen to the party.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Could you imagine how many foul shots Cruz would have hit if RNC officials would call technical fouls on Donald Trump?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
Corrupt Oklahoma cops stole $53K in charity money from a Christian rock group, Klo & Kweh Music Team, for a college and orphanage in Asia.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
A busted taillight resulted in a money-sniffing dog; no evidence of drugs, but the officers kept the cash under drug-related suspicion.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
We need other states besides NM, NC, and NE to step up and abolish civil asset forfeiture,often aided and abetted shamefully by Justice Dept— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 25, 2016
How gullible are Trump cultists?Trump is trying to treat an alliance between the Cruz and Kasich campaigns as "illegal".Joint venture common— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
You have joint ventures like MSNBC, the International Space Station, mobile networks, the Geneva Convention, the Internet. Nothing illegal.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
The "real collusion"? That the Dems sent in Hillary Clinton funder Donald Trump to divide and conquer the GOP and pave the way for her.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
The Cruz-Kasich alliance is merely a type of pest control, protecting the interests of 62% of voters who have said #NeverTrump.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
I would have voted for any of the 16 of the non-Trump candidates (some more than others) this fall, but #NeverTrump.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
However, what's clear is that the American people will lose this fall. All three (Trump, Clinton & Sanders) are running anti-trade/market.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
#ThingsBernieHates: getting an honest job instead of being a professional parasitic political whore; any economics class; reality; the truth— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
I decided to tweak the Bernie Sanders' cultists, who I think are just as troubling as the Trump cultists. This is no oligarchic paradise.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
I graduated from a small Catholic college located in the barrio section of San Antonio. My 2nd work study job was in the social work library— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
I was required to attend a guest lecture by a then unknown Roots author Alex Haley my first semester. La Raza had a large presence on campus— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
I don't think I met a conservative or libertarian to the day I graduated. My favorite professor later taught a class in liberation theology.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
A boy of 15 who is not a democrat is good for nothing, and he is no better who is a democrat at 20. - John Adams. BTW, I graduated at 19.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
“Whether they are veterans or not,[the vendors] should not be allowed to sell on this most important and prestigious shopping street.”-Trump— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
"I like people who weren't captured." - Trump. I like people who don't pay politicians to make an appearance at their weddings— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016

The Institute for Justice says that all charges in OK dropped and money returned to the Christian rock band raising funds for charity.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
On Government "Investments"The Oklahoma legislature needs to abolish civil asset fofeiture. Similarly, Congress needs to outlaw these corrupt deals with the states.— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 26, 2016
