At some point, if we ever want to recapture the heart of this dashing nation, we will need to stop blaming others for that which we are responsible. What do I mean by this? I mean that Trump is responsible for what Trump does. He doesn’t listen to Ivanka or anyone else. The blame lays squarely on Trump.

The problem has never been the minimum wage. It has always been the lack of a maximum wage. Economic inequality, which everyone is arguing in favor of if they aren’t against capping wages, is the genesis of social collapse...it is seed of a cancer that rots a society from the inside out.
Good point about the North. Google “Abe Lincoln racist quotes.” He sounds like Trump’s inspiration.
It’s like they don’t understand how economics work and how raising the cost of labor results in two possibilities:
The same people who claim they don’t want old white men to have control of their bodies want old white men to tell them how much they are worth as human beings. People should know their own worth, ask for a better salary, or be bold enough to start their own business.
For the love of god just do away with minimum wage.
If this did get passed you and those people wouldn't get raises, you would get fired.
Serious question:
Utterly meaningless and won't ever be enacted.
Apparently, the far-left doesn’t know much about economics. No surprise there.
You dipshits are trying way too hard to shift the focus back on Pelosi and centrists. God, you’re fucking lame.
What about the Bud Dry index?
ZH used this index incessantly from 2011-2014 to evidence a global trade meltdown worse than 2008. Similarly, spikes don’t matter. Zoom out a decade and you’ll see why.
Kwame Kilpatrick was a corrupt piece of shit who aspired to be the kind of grifter Trump is, who lined his pockets with millions as Detroit fell into bankruptcy, and who was caught on recordings casually throwing the n word around with his mistress at the same time he was condemning it as hateful and burying it.
People have been kicking and screaming that the recession is nigh for the past two years, yet somehow it just never seems to come..
How does this all get fixed in one presidential election? Because I don’t see it.
Democratic leaders don’t have a magic wand they can wave over the heads of millions of Americans to change their cognitive plumbing.
As I’ve said several times today, the president who has made unrepentant bigotry and white supremacy a cornerstone of his entire political career, has approval ratings in the low 40s. This is happening because this is who we are and who we have always been.
Let’s be honest, they’ve been perfecting the response for years: “THOSE people are allowed to say it in their rap songs and talking about each other, but the Leader of the Free World can’t use it? You’re the real racist because you hate white people so much that you want to police their freedom of speech.”
