Just remember what made America great. Liberal parties, new deals, FDR new deals, unions. Without these things, we'd be working peasants. Unregulated free market capitalism didn't create the middle class. It created the super wealth Trump and Elon Musk have. And from the late 70's to now, long story short, Republican policies have hurt the middle class and helped them.
1. Investors do better when workers do worse.
2. Hiring illegals is something corporations do. They vote GOP and government, BOTH SIDES ACTUALLY, now ignore it. I say make them legal yesterday so they start paying taxes. Hiring illegals steals from the American middle class. Billions every year. And robs social security.
3. Sending jobs overseas helps the rich, corporations, CEO's
4. Attacking unions helps CEO's and corporations.
From late 70's to now union membership went from 35% of our workforce to 5%. Now it's maybe 10%? Labor needs to get a seat at the table.
Great. I have no problem with that.
