MILWAUKEE — Four barbers and a firefighter were pondering their future under a Trump presidency at the Upper Cutz barbershop last week. “We got to figure this out,” said Cedric Fleming, one of the barbers. “We got a gangster in the chair now,” he said, referring to President-elect Donald J. Trump. They admitted that they could not complain too much: Only two of them had voted. But there were no regrets. “I don’t feel bad,” Mr. Fleming said, trimming a mustache. “Milwaukee is tired.

Hey at least they have jobs.
They never do anything for us anyway.
I guess they never heard the famous John Kennedy quote: “ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.”
By the way had any of you Freepers heard this about that quote . . . I missed it. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2056020/JFK-stole-ask-country-speech-old-headmaster.html
As I read the article, all of the men in the barbershop have some sort of job. They are working and paying taxes, although probably not much.
“They never do anything for us anyway.”
I have a job. “They” don’t do anything for me, either.
I don’t want their help. I’m just fine.
Like many had thought....a lot of democrats stayed home & did not vote. It worked out great for us:)
Yes. In fact, I hope they do it again next time. And every election after that.
Waiting on the government to do something for them. How incredibly sad.
