Just to be clear.

Con thinking: Woman who after working hard for 40 years and whose job was sent overseas so the bottom line could grow by 2% can't pay her bills = Deadbeat
Multimillionaires elected to office who refuse to pay the countries bills = Patriot.

Republican thinking is a mental illness.

back in the 90s I was a paralegal working in large law firms (major city). Our base salaries weren't that high but it was ok and the overtime pay was tremendous. I've moved on to other things but I bet a lot of that work is gone now. Computerized, outsourced etc... It has happened to so many folks & will continue to get worse when TPP is passed.

CT is bleeding jobs and they are not coming back. I don't envy my daughter's generation.

Peace.
