Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.
I just chalk it up to anyone that is a Bernie supporter, or pretty much the democratic party, is a complete and total loser. They might as well announce they think it's the job of the government to take from productive Americans and give it to the societal losers.

Must be a hell of a deal, your base constituency is one of lazy, irresponsible people, more than willing to sit back, let others toil and sweat, all so they can receive their monthly welfare checks, and then go off to the polls and vote for the sorry sacks that promises them even more, all the while those that work hard, have personal responsibility and self reliance, are demonized as greedy heartless bastards, but they are the very ones that finance such excursions into dependency.
Earth to you leftists goons, at some point in time, as more and more folks go on the dole, the government will require something of you, because eventually someone has to do the work, and you will have no choice but to do as they command, it's called servitude. Then will be that magic moment when you will tell yourself, "ok, so that's the loss of freedom those damn Republicans used to talk about all of the time"? Too late, we're all screwed.

Really? "Only Black Lives Matter?" There's no such thing. Black Lives Matter is trying to get equal footing with "Only cops' lives matter."
And guess what? There's a profit motive involved too:

Police officers "trained" by this guy (may there be a Hell because if there is he WILL burn in it) may be the explanation for the case where the black driver at a gas station was shot while complying with the officer's instructions to present his license and insurance.
Full disclosure: I'm white. I have a family member with mental illness. People with mental illness are the police's second-favorite targets. So this is personal.

Maybe she was in 1993 - I honestly don't remember the details of HillaryCare, except that it was more socialist than ObamaCare. But this century she's a corporatist, taking donations from Donald Trump, voting for the Iraq invasion, and keeping vewy, vewy kwiet about TPP.
I'm decidedly NOT in favor of government ownership of the means of production, i.e., actual socialism.
I'm also not in favor of the dole for the able-bodied, but I am in favor of WPA-style government jobs and other forms of Keynesianism when the private economy is not providing enough jobs.
Oh, by the way, Bernie is a "democratic socialist" which in practice doesn't mean socialism plus small-d democratic governance, but a Scandinavian style economy.

So that's why your party is allowing tens of thousands to come across the border? Will that help that situation? To be fair, we've had a lot of Repubs allow it too. Too much influence by the Chamber of Commerce I guess.
There are jobs, I can't tell you the number of business owners that cannot find people to fill jobs. Some would rather live a little less, but have no responsibility. The government becomes competition to some employers. How can that be good?
We can agree on the WPA type jobs. The absolute worst thing about the welfare programs under the Great Society were that they did not require any effort for their government check nothing. That to me was the beginning of the end of America. The very virtues that made us great, under attack. Generations lost to a hopeless life of dependency. Education could be the ticket out, but the Labor Unions do not want vouchers or charter schools as competition, afraid they will have results, and they like things the way they are, dumbing down the masses and creating a life of dependency. What a future.
Obama Wrong on D.C. School Vouchers and Hypocritical, Just Like Congress
The program gave desperate parents a shot at quality education for their children.

Despite giving lip service to education reform, the Obama administration has decided to put an end to the very successful D.C. school voucher program. This despite a United States Department of Education report that found students in the nation's capital that were provided with vouchers allowing them to attend private school through the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship program had made statistically significant gains in reading achievement.
According to the department's evaluation of the three-year-old program, "those offered a scholarship were performing at statistically higher levels in reading—equivalent to 3.1 months of additional learning," something very much in line with previous findings concerning the program's effectiveness.
Columnist Juan Williams, who can often be found providing the liberal perspective on the Fox News Channel, called the decision to end the program, "Obama's outrageous sin against our kids."
"The cause of my upset is watching the key civil rights issue of this generation—improving big city public school education—get tossed overboard by political gamesmanship," Williams wrote Monday. "If there is one goal that deserves to be held above day-to-day partisanship and pettiness of ordinary politics it is the effort to end the scandalous poor level of academic achievement and abysmally high drop-out rates for America's black and Hispanic students."
The D.C. voucher program provided D.C. parents desperate to find a quality education for their children a much needed lifeline. Unfortunately, as Williams pointed out, the program has fallen victim to the education politics.
You know TAFB, this is but one example of how the Dems will take the side of the Labor Unions over the well being of poor black kids. Why, because those Unions funnel millions of dollars into Democratic candidates coffers. So when you hear these Libs talking about raising people up, please know that most are full of _hit. Can you admit that?

Besides automation, the other major threat to jobs is corporate-friendly globalization. TPP. Thanks Obama.
In a perfect world, we could have teachers paid a living wage AND accountable for results. Teaching is a calling, one of the most important jobs of all, and we should be paying our teachers accordingly.There are jobs, I can't tell you the number of business owners that cannot find people to fill jobs.

When I hear establishment Democrats talk, I know many of them are full of $hit. That doesn't apply so much to actual liberals.Obama Wrong on D.C. School Vouchers and Hypocritical, Just Like Congress

Looks like the school voucher deal is one of the c. 60% of bad Obama decisions.
When the business owners start to pay something close to a livable wage, they won't have such a hard time finding workers. They will also attract more Americans and provide less of a magnet for immigrants, legal or otherwise. And yes, that's part of why the establishment Republicans aren't interested in stopping immigration.
