(12,712 posts)Let's use other countries as leverage in order to build a more equitable form of poverty and assure American workers that their participation in the process means making the sacrifices necessary to build a third-world country, on bloviation at a time.
Lower wages should be an important agenda for all of us because it sure beats no wages at all, of course. Profit is a very sacred family value and what's the big deal if you and your kin live in your cars and shower at the car wash if it means making America great again? Without a willingness to make much needed sacrifices for the sake of the shareholders of this great country, you are only standing in the way of the many more trillions of dollars that are required by that deserving group of folks who are on their way, but JUST DON'T HAVE QUITE ENOUGH YET. Get real.
Go Trump! Trump/Melanoma 2016.
