25% of our workforce making about half what they were five years ago.
Nothing that higher taxes and bigger government can't fix.
Another person heard from who can’t take ownership of his failed policies. (the policies he supported)
Just for laughs, what would it take for you to admit our (near complete) patent database, our military technology, 25% of our jobs, and another 25% of our citizens salaries were stripped by 50%, were gifted to China or lost due to our Free Trade policies?
And yet here you are demagoguing the issue of government control, as if the lack of any government intervention at all, had brought us exactly what you promised.
I detest government intervention in these things. I also detest unions. If tax breaks and government policies helped to create the situation we have now though, you don’t mind government intervention at all do you. And frankly, there has been government intervention in all this.
For one thing, our leaders have simply refused to protect our states from invasion, and a flooding of the work-pool with poor immigrants that will work for dirt wages, thus deflating what citizens can expect to earn, even with 50% of our workforce out of work or earning less than half what they did five years ago.
I can’t help but notice your selective amnesia when it comes to ‘all’ government involvement.
You know, when you think about it, the government policies that put 23% of our workforce out of work, and caused as many to earn far less than they used to, amounts to 100% taxes, and in some cases up to 50% taxes.
Okay it’s not taxes, but it works out to no income and severely lessened income. Why is that of no concern to you?
I bring up the issue of lopsided trade and illegal immigration raving our workforce, and you actually have the gall to take me on rather than admit we have a massive problem on our hands.
