Tell that to my neighbor whose acreage is on CRP. Or all of the teachers I know who help other people’s kids grow and acquire life skills. If they voted Democratic…they are clearly losers who don’t really want to earn one of the highest standards of living in the world.
How about the iconic self made billionaires who desire that they pay zero taxes? They owe nothing to society because of sheer awesomeness!
Or timber and mining CEO’s who make profits off of public owned and managed lands and infrastructure for free?
Labor productivity and associated output continue to rise while so do hours worked. But only for the people not in that 81 million group.
If you vote red you’re clearly not one of the takers expecting benefits without earning them.

And it can also lead to layoffs and price increases because it increases labor costs. Businesses can’t simply pay people not work for weeks/months without hiring someoe to replace them and raise prices. And guess who has to pay for those price increases?

Why are dumb politicians constantly trying to change the greatest country on earth?
So dumb
How many empires have been diminished under the oppressive yoke of paid family leave?
And if its a small business and they can’t afford to hire someone else or raise prices, they go out of business, esp if they are competing against businesses in states without paid family leave.

I’m not all against family leave, but I know that these programs are abused… like working from home and collecting locality pay when you’re not really living in the locality…. It goes on and on and on.
All programs are abused. From defense spending to tax deductions, to social. Don’t make the perfect the enemy of the good. Especially when around 80% of Americans want it.

Which raises the entire wage scale, labor costs, and makes good and services more expensive.

Yes. Profit margins and taxes being the 4th-5th rails. They must never be touched. It’s only labor and the middle class who suffer.

Re: Trump vs Harris
You've never questioned a doctor's opinion? Why is it ok to question fauxi but not braunstein? The doctor's daughters claim that the diagnosis was made as a favor to his landlord, fred trump. How is a guy who spent 5 years at the New York Military Academy unfit for military duty? How does someone with bone spurs play as much golf and tennis as he does? There are red flags all over that diagnosis, you just choose to ignore them because you worship trump.SeattleGriz wrote: ↑Sun Aug 11, 2024 1:08 pmYou're now over riding doctor diagnosis.

walz might be a disgusting liar but trump is no better. Only a hypocrite or kool-aid drinking cultist would believe that trump supporters have the moral high ground when it comes to criticizing walz's service.

2 Denial of Impact - January 6 was a peaceful demonstration and not an attempt to prevent the Constitutional transfer of power, the only one hurt was a single protester who was murdered by Capitol Police
3 Blame-shifting - trump's own words and actions had nothing to do with the assassination attempt that was the fault of people who called him Hitler or a threat to democracy.
