...I’m running for governor because you shouldn’t have to work more than one job full-time to make a living.

Wrong, so very, very wrong. Does she believe every job out there should pay enough and provide enough benefits to make a career out of it? Seriously, every job?

As soon as you accept that reality check - that there are some jobs that simply are not going to support a person let alone a family - then you have to realize another truth. It isn't black and white. Not all jobs are flipping burgers or playing CEO on Wall St. There's a whole spectrum in between. So the reality is yes, depending on your situation: where you are, what you're doing, etc. you may have to work 2 or 3 jobs for a while.

Heck, if I could support my family and lifestyle by pumping gas 30 to 50 hrs a week I would. That was a low stress job where the entertainment (the general public) literally came to you. Unfortunately that job really only kept me in beer and gas money. When I could I also worked in a warehouse and at landscaping and a little local truck driving. Got through college in 4 years for my first degree and got a much better job. That's how it's done. Starter jobs are not careers.

If she believed that, she wouldn’t be in politics, which is the ultimate parasitical “job”.
