I enjoy pointing out different positions and what they mean.Remember what Corporations and Billionaires told the GOP? And I'm paraphrasing here:
If you don't screw over the middle class and the poor, kick them off healthcare and use that money to give us huge tax cuts, then we will stop shoveling money your way. No more contributions from us.
Hill Republican dilemma: Dash to pass tax reform or face donor backlash
Graham: 'Financial contributions will stop' if GOP doesn't pass tax reform
OK, so that worked. It's clear that Republicans would literally throw grandma over a cliff for donor dollars. Something we can ALL agree on without debate. That's just the way Republicans are. They've been that way for decades.
Now, where are they on DACA?
DACA: America's biggest businesses employ Dreamers - and are standing by them
CEOs Of Major Companies Tell Congress To Protect 'Dreamers'
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos contributes $33 million to Dreamers
So why would CEO's and corporations protect these youngsters? Especially since they don't want to protect American families and the millions who will lose their healthcare.
Ending This Immigration Program Would Devastate the Economy
DACA deportations would cost billions for states like California, Texas and Illinois
Aah. Now it becomes clear.
Business is not about to allow itself to go under. Not only would they lose workers, it might even be cheaper to move a company overseas than to train new workers from an untrainable GOP base, even if they were interested in learning, which of course they aren't.
So the question becomes, when will business step in and give new orders to the GOP leadership? Since the GOP is in power, and the GOP works for corporations, it's only a matter of time before they step in. sing a lullaby and orders the GOP to leave the Dreamers alone.
But look at these right wingers. Why do they insist on being clowns? Don't know anything and never will. No wonder corporations want Dreamers and not Republicans.
If Corporations want DACA people over Republicans it's only because they can hire DACA people for much less.
So, much for being for the "Working man", huh?
U.S. job openings hit record high, nearly 6.2 million
Analysis | President Trump won big in these places. Now he wants to eliminate 3 agencies dedicated to helping them.
Appalachians Are Harder Hit by Poverty Than All Other Americans—So Why Does Trump Want to Make Their Lives Worse?
Appalachia covers 13 Republican states. And are they disasters.
If Republicans were capable, they would take some of those 6 million unfilled jobs.
So sending away educated people creating another million unfilled jobs will help the GOP base?
That's just fuking funny. Who could believe that?
In fact, the estimate is that it would cost a half trillion.
And we all agree, that even if the GOP congress paid for job training or college, we can all agree they won't.
And we know what Republicans think of college.
The majority of Republicans say colleges are bad for America (yes, really)
