Those MEAN OLE LIBERALS ... just look what THEY did, its terrible:
• They got both Women and Minorities the RIGHT TO VOTE (Republicans opposed them)
• They created social security (Republicans were against it)
• They ended segregation and passed the Civil Rights Act, the Voters Right Act, and Medicare (Republicans said NO WAY)
• They passed the Clean Air, and Clean Water Acts (Republicans were against those as well)
• Liberals gave us the minimum wage, workers safety, and consumer protection​

Yeah, we LIBERALS are mean and selfish, alright ... Liberals Are AGAINST:
• Using wealth to gain an unfair advantage on the common workers​
• Corporations who use their wealth to bribe Washington to establish unfair legislation just for THEM​
• Crony capitalism and fraudulent banking practices​
• Legalized fraud in the investment markets; we're not against Wall Street​
• Land, air, and water pollution; we're not against Energy​

Its interesting to know that the last two Democrat presidents were a Rhodes scholar and a Law Professor. The last two Republican presidents were a failed oil executive and a TV personality.

BIG MONEY contributors is the single worst problem in today's politics and elections. It was Democrats who voted for full, campaign finance transparency; it was Republicans who voted it down.
Every single Republican Supreme Court judge voted FOR Citizens United while every single Democrat Supreme Court judge voted against it.

So, IF you are AGAINST Socialism, which programs would you eliminate right now ...

Anyone see the new economic figures? Unemployment claims are at it’s lowest in half a century. Wages are up. Everyone’s wages across all ethnic and racial groups are up.

Mac, I have a question, if things are so bad under Trump, why is Obama trying to take credit?
 
CNN reports this mornin - unemployment rate has fallen to 3.6% - lowest number in over 50 years - that ain’t nuttin and taint horseshite.
I'll agree that Trump has had some impact on the jobs numbers, BUT, lets note some additional facts to go with it here:
• Job numbers have continually been climbing for the past 10 years. Some people don't realize how many jobs were lost in the last couple years of the Bush administration; the number 800,000 a month ring a bell? Trump inherited a recovering economy, did he not, from Obama? And, Trump has pretty much insisted on keeping the inflation number artificially low, even though indicators want to begin allowing some inflation to return. Eventually, inflation will return with a vengeance, and, there will be little that can be done to keep it at bay when it does. You'll be looking at double digit inflation for sure. Same with the stock market #s; due for a radical adjustment.​
• Trump's government spending #s to revenue are atrocious; have you seen the deficit spending numbers lately?​
•We should be very concerned with the stock market; measures were put into place to guard against another Wall Street crash as we had towards the end of the Bush administration (ie. Dodd-Frank); Trump & Republicans have been removing those safe guards. The next crash could be as bad, if not worse, than the last one. *see attachment
So, Mr pic_FoxNews2.jpg , what you got to say for that? GIF_GrouchoMarx.gif

They only say jobs were lost but now where. How many jobs went over seas and how many were lost to automation?

The plant I am in used to have around 700 people to day it’s around 250. We are still turning out the same amount of stuff just with a lot of jobs automated out of existence in the last ten years

The US is making a transition from a industrialized to technology based economy. We're doing 2 things wrong with it now:
• Not preparing/training our work ******* for this change; wanting to cut back on public education instead of adjusting the curriculums.​
• Giving our costly investments (R&D) into technologies to other countries "free" and they turn around and use it to compete against us.​

As Dr. Spock would say, "This is simply not logical".

The US is making a transition from a industrialization to technology based economy. We're doing 2 things wrong with it now:
• Not preparing/training our work *******; in fact, wanting to cut back on public education instead of adjusting the curriculums.​
• Giving our costly investments into technologies to other countries "free" and they turn around and use it to compete with us for GNP.​

Utter BULLSHIT as usual from you. Republican's voted in a greater percentage for the civil rights act and voting rights act than democraps.

Here's the actual vote totals you can review.

With his KKK resume, he was able to rise in the Democrap party all the way to the position of President pro tempore of the Senate.

Early 20th century American labor and working-class history is a subfield of American social history that focuses attention on the complex lives of working people in a rapidly changing global political and economic system.

Someone doesn't understand the difference between Socialism and public services. We don't need a Socialistic government to have Public services, or even social programs. Who do you think wins in a Socialistic society Mac? Venezuela would be a good place to start. Only the wealthy and government are taken care of - the people are not. Bringing in more socialism will only strengthen the class that has all the power to begin with.
