Quite amazing that so many Americans are brainwashed into believing they don't deserve more than the pittance they're being allowed by the very wealthy! Socially responsible government (socialist policies) was given a bad name by the Cold war and now it's going to take a while to get back to normal.

It's so amazing that poor Americans have been brainwashed into believing there should be no minimum wage! Shouldn't that be the very wealthy's schtick?

Do you really believe we are losing jobs to immigrants? really? That is a right wing meme. If you want to know where American jobs went, follow corporations and people like Ivanka and Daffy who have their manufacturing to 3rd world countries and China. But Trump says we are at full employment and we should allow some illegals in to fill jobs that cannot be filled now.
The Repubs through the destruction of Unions and workers rights, and their moving jobs abroad are shooting American workers in the face.You are buying a ridiculous meme.

There are lots of low-wage/low-skill Americans being put out of work by Third World Labor. Naturally, you and your Elite friends live in Ivory Towers and can't or won't realize this. As you sit there in your Gated Communities, who does the yard maintenance, who is the Cook, the Butler, the Maid, the Chauffer, the Pool Boy? Who is the Construction Crew that is tearing down your two-car Garage and replacing it with a 4 car Garage? Yes, yes, yes, ... all work no American wants to do ... you tell yourself.
Trump got elected because of people like you who shoot the American Working Class in the back.
You're quite wrong on that. If I use universal health care as an example of 'socialist' policy, it becomes obvious that no person from the old Warsaw pact countries would argue with me over that.
You've missed the point again and it's likely that your anger is causing you to blurt out kneejerk nonsense. Read carefully and you'll find that what I was saying is that social policy or socially responsible capitalism is largely impossible in the US because of the stigmatizing from the Cold war. Socially responsible has been demonized in your mind and the minds of those like you, to see it as communism.
For somebody who was going to leave that thread, you certainly are sticking around much longer and craving attention. If you don't like the topic then bugger off.
