2,000 hr per year of work X 100 years = 200,000.
One thing I would like to see President Trump try is to reduce the minimum wage to $5/hr for those under 20 years old. I think this would bring more inner city youth into the job market. Idle hands are the devil’s plaything.
.
There are more poor white people, by sheer numbers.
But, there’s not a single politician that speaks for them.
Scott is a one issue Politician when you get down to it. Certainly his favorite subject.
SC can pick ‘me. Stray Gowdy, Lindsey Graham, and yet another race baiter.
.
“What can I do to help” isn’t good enough?
Is anything enough?
What should the president have said, I wonder?
Just stop with the guessing games already.
...this meeting happened last year and it is being reported as news now. Why?
************
If you read the article I think there have been others.
Conversations (plural) are mentioned more than once.
He is douche-ish
Always was
“The way it closed I thought gave me reasons to be hopeful,” Scott recalled. “It closed with: ‘Tim I don’t see what you see. What can I do to make things better.’”
And did you show the same courtesy to say “Mr. President I don’t see what you see. What can I do to make things better”, Tim? Oh, you didn’t?
And you’re dumping on the President to the racist, commie Van Jones?
I think we need to replace two senators in SC.
from the same Van Jones interview!
30 Jun: CNN: Sen. Tim Scott plans to recommend Trey Gowdy for Supreme Court
By Veronica Stracqualursi
Scott called Gowdy, a former federal prosecutor, “incredibly fair” and said he was an equal opportunity critic of both the Trump and Obama administrations.
“A guy who will call balls and strikes and not choose a side, even when he’s an elected member, at this time in our nation’s history that’s hard to find,” Scott said.
The two Republicans have grown close over their time in Congress and recently co-authored a book, “Unified: How Our Unlikely Friendship Gives Us Hope for a Divided Country.” ...
“I want someone who understands and appreciates where our country is today, not where it was 50 years ago,” Scott said.

Unemployment among Blacks is at an all-time low.
Yes, I’m sure it was tough to have to admit that when Trump brought it up.
Perhaps it was having to realize Obama never achieved this that was so tough.
What the idiot seems to be admitting, is that it’s tough to admit Blacks have never had it so goo.
Just dang! We’re so sorry...
Well, not really... I’m glad things are turning around for Blacks. Excellent.
Most likely most of the non-leftists were there to support keeping Robert E. Lee's statue and were unaware that "white nationalists" were claiming to be in charge of the protest.
When I was a student, the gay activists would from time to time announce a "blue jeans day" when people were supposed to wear blue jeans to show support for the gay cause. But they did not make much of an effort to publicize it, and most people wore blue jeans most of the time anyway...so students would arrive on campus and discover that they were supposedly showing support for gays. Some people would even go home to change clothes when they learned that.
So I would guess the former Obama activist who was pretending to be a white nationalist at the time of the Charlottesville protest may have engaged in a similar kind of deceitful tactic.
At first glance, the “media” reporting this claim are of the very far left persuasion.
I found it to be a pro-Trump article. Him saying he thought Trump could be racially insensitive sounds like lots of African-Americans, who say Caucasians can’t understand.
Trump, the successful businessman, seems to have always insisted on the very best from his employees, and fired/replaced any and all who couldn't cut it. His whole persona on "The Apprentice" was based on this hard nosed reputation. For some it's hard to get their heads around the fact that such an attitude is a sign of respect, not discrimination. Why make allowances unless one assumes, as Democrats do, that blacks are inferior?
Hmm. Maybe Trump mentioned SCOTUS to Gowdy, and that’s why he’s not running for reelection.
Memo to Tim Scott:
President Trump does not see race...he sees AMERCAN... and so should you.
They were both responsible, probably more so the so-called counterprotestors. What's the point?
Opportunity zones are of course a bad idea.
Literally a million hours??? Or figuratively???
Pussy...
