Supreme Court Just Gave -Industry What It Wants - More Drive To Bust Unions [View all]

America is being turned into SERFDOM CAPITAL, and people are not even paying attention.

Wages are already stagnant, the Industrialist have kept the tax cuts money, and now they don't have to raise the pay of anyone, there will be no Unions that give employee's voice.

Trump already attacked "injury reporting" so people now have no historical data to base precedence about hazardous job injuries and before long they won't have a unions to fight for the worker.

The same dumb ass right wing white people who support that kind of stuff, are the same ones whining that they been left behind while they continue to do stupid stuff that makes sure they stay behind. But they are not along, we have too many right leaning democrats who are anti union as well... and we already know the people riding on Degrees, don't want Unions, because they detest seeing anyone make a decent living except themselves. We've become a society dumb enough to fall for the delusion that sitting in a class room for 4 yrs, and hanging out, and paying for a "get a job certificate' is suppose to be the cream of the crop... and none of the degree riders have any idea or thought of doing any actual production labor, they want to push paper and give orders.

Union people has skills of class and craft, even if it was assembly line work, it was a skill set that actually had hands on to produce something.

American Media Promoted Elitist Delusions, as if everyone is going to be an office worker.... Because of them, every low wage country will out pace us 50:1... they'd already out built us 100:1 in the past 50 yrs. As one commented posted after the travel ban, how a foreign survey said... many foreign people no longer want to come to America for vacation, because we got too many people shooting other people, families killing each others, old broken infrastructure, and old hotels that were built cheap, that can't touch the technology that many foreign location built into their facilities, our beaches are crowded and people can't find anywhere to park if they do go, and whats the use of coming here to shop, when everything in our stores is imported from some Foreign location.

Still People can't see....

America can't think deep enough to realize, the only thing that will save America is a 3-4-5 Trillion investment in Small Business Development and Small Business Growth, with Money Allocated for Small Business Start Up....

They glory days we rode the hell out of it, and now all we do is promote any skinny female body that will get practically naked on the media.... we no longer even have awareness, that a slim body and pretty face, does not infer integrity or dignity upon anyone... we see that by these same images who can't wait to blast across the media who they are sleeping with. we got a mass of men, getting busted for sexual encroachment and we got every other week some teacher that has bedded down the students.

We can't even tell the people, how we can fix health care, and how we can stimulate the economy in Rural Areas, Suburban Areas and We don't give a damn about inner city economics. We can't even get out people to continue promoting Clean Energy, We have not conversation in the public about how we can make health care better, we have no conversation on how we can protect workers rights, we have nothing that tells these companies who got our tax money, that they need to provide Pensions for the workers. They sold America on the sham of 401k, when half the working people don't make enough to contribute to it, and after they used the bait and switch game to lure people into it, with a claim of match money, now they contribute not one dime to it. We fell for it... and every 5 yrs they crash the economy and take 50% of what ever gains people thought they had. The wealthy is buying up all the homes, so the bulk of people can't be anything but perpetual renters because they can't earn enough to qualify to buy a home. And no one wants to move in the broken down community and fix them, because they don't have enough income... so the well to do degree riders come in with a gentrification program, and move out the remaining poor, and make it unaffordable for the average working person to even live there.

Why is our Democratic Message Not Talking About Any Of This!!!!! Why are they not telling us, what their plan is to help change and fix some of this for the average person. and lo and behold, they damn sure is not going to even think about how they can help or assist the minorities with anything. Heck, half the people won't even speak up when the police keep shooting young black people.

yep, just as I wrote the other day, people are UNAWARE that a Supreme Court Justice is Worth $TRILLION of Dollars to the Wealthy... and they proved that today... Again.... Now, we have one who is retiring, as part of the plot, because he leaned Right anyway, and he's no fool... he knows retiring now, send the Court Far to the Right....

and all that is going to happen, is people will crack a few jokes, sling a bit of sarcasm... and not generate any thing that puts the heat under Democrats ass and Democratic Politicians asses to do anything ... but hide out somewhere silent, afraid Trump might launch an attack on them.

Republican are winning at Gerrymandering, and Trump will create another distraction when they get ready to use the Nuclear Options AGAIN, and seat another Right Wing Justice... and we will still have a mass of people, cracking jokes and pushing sarcasm, while the Republican will fill up the Federal Court with Right Wing Judges that coordinate with the Right Wing Supreme Court and they will FOREVER change America.

Now, what is the Democratic Plan? Please explain with some detail and explain how it is suppose to be implemented and then explain how it can benefit American peoples everyday life ???? but first name the front runner who can lead us?

I think the one that has the best chance is Elizabeth Warren... she's been speaking up and challenging and calling Republican out for the past 6 yrs...or so.... the sad thing, is she gets not collective support from the democratic congress people. They don't help her flank the Republican, they don't help her with promoting commentary narrative to support her fights, but she is relentless in pushing the fight and being concerned about the American people.

We need to wake up, and get off this.. I hate Trump obsession... its already understood that we hate Trump, now we need to focus on what are out plans, how do we expect to achieve them, and what are our methods of doing so, and how do we explain to the people how our plans can fix the schools, create business opportunity in Rural Areas, Suburban Areas, and Inner Cities Areas? How can we stop Online things like Amazon from killing jobs and stealing the sales data of people who use its site, and then promoting its own brand by using the stolen data from its sellers.
How do we expand clean energy, and what type of clean energy are we going to expand. How do we make education affordable, and how do we give Vocation and Technical Training the Credibility It deserves and keep the cost low for the lower income and those who's income is fast becoming insufficient to educate their kids or help them get and learn a skill.

Where's that message? How can we protect the remaining Fresh Water that we have, how do we reinvigorate the Farming Industry, and take it back from the Chemical Companies? How do we produce Medicine in America and Sell it at a price people can afford... Will we ever make our own appliances, will we ever make our own computers, and will we ever make our own cell phones ON AMERICA SOIL.... Absolutely none of that is being discussed by the Democratic Politicians.

We can't even go to the store and buy "Fish" and get what it is suppose to be, because its some screwed up, until we don't know what the heck it is, and many times it is certainly not what the label said. We can't even catch and sell natural catfish, now we import foreign farm raised catfish, and foreign farm raised shrimp.

We think Detroit is a real life example of what happens when we have no plan... we now see the fall of Department Stores that once were the cream of America, that even sold American made goods.
We see everything being sold and moved out of the country....
We have a stock market that has gone right back to the Casino Game that crashed us in 2008, and Trump is destroying more Regulation, while we have a straight out ego maniac EPA chief, who can't stop patronizing himself with our money.

there is no thought to preserve and protect anything for the generation that might exist in 2050... and beyond... all we see is run away greed and hiding money offshore and now waiting on N. Korea to open its doors so the wealthy can get even cheaper labor to produce cheap goods to sell us, and we will buy it, because we have not alternative...

We can't even go to the store and buy "organic" food, because the wage is too low, so we by chemical injected fruits and vegetable, and chemical saturated meats... and can foods that are filled with processing wage, and salted down to give it flavor.

Some foreign countries won't buy such things from us, because they don't allow those chemicals to poison their people.

What's our plan to change any of this?
