So, what do you think was more incompetent in Harding's administration: The economic recovery or his initiatives to expand Indian rights and combat lynching? I guess his arms reduction talks were pretty naive. Also, he should have left Debbs in prison instead of pardoning him.

Well there were his own words;

"I am not fit for this office and should never have been here."

His administration was the most corrupt;

Teapot Dome: Secretary of the Interior Albert Fall accepted huge bribes so private companies could pump oil out of fields reserved for the Navy. Fall was the first member of a presidential cabinet convicted for his corruption. Edwin Denby, the Secretary of the Navy, resigned.

Attorney General Harry Daugherty resigned after one of his aides was implicated in a bootlegging scheme. The aide committed suicide, but Daugherty was found not guilty.

Director of the Veterans Bureau Charles R. Forbes defrauded the government of hundreds of millions of dollars through bid-rigging and cost inflation on construction of medical facilities, as well as selling off stockpiled medical and other supplies at huge discounts to friends.

Office of Alien Property head Thomas Miller was convicted of patent fraud and accepting bribes.

Also his pardoning Debs and his support of a bill making lynching a federal crime were his greatest contributions to our Res Publica. Debs imprisonment by Wilson was a vile and disgusting act, not to mention one of the most egregious attacks ever on our first amendment rights, that will remain forever a permanent stain on Wilson's reputation.

Of course, a great deal of the 65% thinks the country is going in the wrong direction because it isn't moving to the Left fast enough.

But you go right on lying about the facts.

After all, it's what you do...it's ALL you do.

While I agree with those last couple sentences, how do we do that when the cost is still better for companies to go after the cheaper labor? If we pay middle America the same as those other countries, middle America becomes even more poverty stricken, and if we force corporations to move their workforce here at even current minimum wage we get accused of class warfare.

btw we are already called deplorable, racist, sexist , or whatever. Do you really think we care if they accuse us of class warfare?

I haven't had a raise in 10 years -i have had advancement in the company -so I am making more money.
But for the majority of workers, it isn't good.

we need to do some wealth creation -this 1% GDP isn't cutting it.

As liberals have pointed out? No economists have pointed it out?

The reason it's relevent is explaining why the unemployment rate is where it is and why there's such economic anxiety with such a low rate. That's fact.

Bravs said teens are driving up the unemployment rate in record numbers yet we don't have a record number of teens in the country anymore.

Before I forget: congratulations on the soon-to-be new arrival! I'm happy for you both, know how much you've wanted a baby and how long you've waited.

Just say the word and one of these can arrive on your doorstep within days: ;)

few teens to do the low wage part time


you never understand anything wack

That is made up for by many boomers who are looking for part time work Desh, which you would know because you understand so much. Plus you are arguing for a living wage for this part time work. How do you think that encourages teens to be hired?
