    G O P Debate 11/10/2015

    Didn't watch it myself but I did read several of the candidates don't think the minimum wage should be raised and it's too high already. To that I say horseshit. $15 sounds a little high now but $7.25 is a bit low. IMO $10 an hour would be a reasonable figure right now. I think it's ridiculous shitloads of people make less than I was making when I first started in aircraft manufacturing damn near 25 years ago. The company I worked for paid 100% of my medical and dental insurance too.

    The American dream is over, it is now one of the least socially mobile countries in the world.

    In other words if you are born poor you will almost definitely die poor.

    Millionaires telling people they need to live on a working wage of $7 while CEO's who completely fuck up like the United Airlines twat get $20 million payoffs. Why so many working people vote for these people is bizarre.

      Because of the bullshit two party system we have here we don't get much of a choice of who we can vote for. If an independant ever gets elected that might change but until then we're stuck with what they give us. Name one candidate from either party that would actually rule the country by the peoples will. You can't because they're all just a bunch of greedy power hungry bastards.

        Well, it wasn't that long ago that regardless of which party occupied the White House that actual governing could take place.....

        Let's be more specific - Any time prior to the black guy's first day in office, the same day which the Republicans proclaimed via a press conference that they were going to stomp their feet like children and block everything that he proposed....

        That's not governing....

            Yeah, I suppose $10/hr is livable when you're living rent free in your parents basement. @$18/hr is barely livable. Idiot.

                If you raise the minimum wage to $15 you will no longer be able to live on $18 an hour moron. Business owners aren't going to suffer because they have to pay higher wages, consumers are.

                  I honestly don't know what "a mensa standout like yourself" means, but whatever....

                  You cannot compare what George Mitchell, or any party's filibusters during a certain timeframe to the flat-out obstructionism the Republicans have done during Obama's tenure....

                          Being born too early, would people give much of a shit these days?

                            I gotta agree with the other guy. Partisan politics has been around since day one. The general public's just better informed nowdays.

                              Gary wasn't born to early. He got caught fucking around too early. If he had been elected president already everyone would have congratulated him on finding such a fine piece of ass. I wonder what she looks lke now.
