Picking up snippets of POTUS SOTU speech. (I love govt. talk)
Never heard the phrase "living wage jobs" mentioned, just that the unemployment rate is, allegedly, dropping.
Living wage jobs return when we drop the robotics trend and return manufacturing to America. Technology has put so many people out of work it isn't funny. I know that last sentence could spark a healthy debate.
Free community college. Hmm. Kicker to that is the state will have to contribute. Fat chance. They won't contribute to healthcare, which affects far more folks.
Combat in Afghanistan is over, except for those 15k troops we still have there. Pretty sure they aren't handing out candy.
Most of America's problems gathered under one roof last night. The Supreme Court, in bed with Big Business. The House and Senate, stuck with centuries-old operating rules and traditions that bind them from any real substantial change for the better. A President unable to lead. All three branches standing there in front of each other, smiling. Why? 545 people charged with the responsibility of running the affairs for a porous country of 312m, depending on how many illegals entered last night. How hard is this?
