Looks like Trump signed an executive order to invest 100 billion in black communities Can't wrap my head around that amount of money and don't know the particulars Been looking for information on it but it hasn't been reported much (if at all) by the MSM
Maybe because he’s not investing 100B into “black” communities? In fact he is not dumping any money into low income communities. He is lowering taxes in poor cities in hopes that businesses will invest there. But who owns a majority of these businesses and who will benefit? Rich white people who live in the suburbs. The order was not designed to help anyone escape poverty.
Serious question: So you're basically saying that only the owners of businesses will benefit? Are you saying that having those businesses in those communities won't help those communities?
cant stand her so i only listened to maybe the first 30 seconds was all i needed same dog and pony show she keeps trotting out there hilarious that she claims all her rhetoric isn't pie in the sky when that's exactly what it is what, does she think she's the first (lefty) to suggest taxing the wealthy and big corporations? all she does is try to appeal to the masses like hillary, all talk with zero substance fed job guarantees, medicare for all, fed housing, free tuition, eliminating student loan debt?.... going to take a lot more taxing the rich and corp america but yeah, keep ranting... it sounds good idiot
College is so expensive BECAUSE of the feds guaranteeing loans to 18 year-olds who are financially illiterate and have no jobs or collateral. Why would colleges lower their tuition when they know kids are stupid enough to take out loans? And when the government is even more stupid for burdening the tax payers to repay the lenders?
Alexandria Ocasio-cortez is probably the dumbest person ever in congress and the future of the democratic party.
She knows what she's doing (at least partly). She also knows she can't pay for all the shit she promises. It's all a plan to get votes. A plan to get votes and keep them. She's after power, and she may know how to get it.
You mean like "fuck the Limeys...they're too subborn. They'll never give up...I've got a better idea- let's invade Russia ! " ---------A.H.
Idk, i think she's retarded and lucky there are enough people who feel sorry for themselves that like to hear how their unfulfilled life is not their fault. People pulling her strings are smart.
Yes, there is abundant research (and examples in recent history) that shows trickle-down economics to be an ineffective method to stimulate growth. It is also important not to overlook the reality of the socioeconomic situation in these low-income cities. Many of these residents lack a college education, are unskilled, are without stable housing/transportation, are disabled, have mental disorders, addiction issues, and more. What kinds of jobs do you think will be available to people without much education? A vast majority of jobs available to the community will be in low-wage industries (cashiers, retail sales people, service employees, etc.), be part-time, and offer little to no benefits. The problem for the residents isn’t finding jobs, it is finding jobs that pay a living wage and keep them out of poverty. That’s why this executive order does nothing to help low-income communities. Corporate profits have continued to rise, but real wages have remained flat for workers without a college education for years. These corporate tax cuts will not lead to higher wages or a decrease in poverty. Instead it will increase profits, broaden the wealth gap, and end up costing lower-income taxpayers more in the long run.
BREAKING NEWS: You cannot help people in slavery. The only way to help slaves is to free them. The only way to free them is to free their mind. The only way to free their mind is to have them escape their enslavement. The only way to escape enslavement is to know you are a slave. The only way to know you are a slave is if you are doing what you want to do to earn your living or if you must do what someone else wants to do because they give you money which in return is more valuable than your freedom. Those men are slavers and the slavers slaves who refuse to wake up and stop being 'woke'. Yes, trickle down don't work... fast. It is slow and only for the select few who can take advantage of the dew that collects each morning from the trickle-down effect. You know if you lay heavy blankets out flat on the floor outside that when you get up in the morning these blankets can be squeezed into buckets and buckets of water. You can bathe in one nights dew yet your neighbor will wake up and not have enough water to wash the mote in their eye. Some people do the most with what little they got and are able. Some people do nothing and have nothing even if there is living manna all around them. You are right. Giving slaves more shitty jobs does not help them. Shitty jobs are for slaves. Give a slave a shitty service job that guarantees him a shitty paycheck and you just won yourself a slave. Any job that someone will GIVE you is a slaves job. Nobody gives away good things just like that. They give away shitty things. So keep begging and keep getting the crumbs off the table. And still, have the audacity to bitch at your masters who give you their crumbs? Why beg the same very people who feed you? You should bite that hand instead. Never beg for more like a poor parish boy. There is one answer and one answer only. Because you aren't going to fight. So your only option is to leave. Make room for the new recruits coming from the south. Take what you learned from your master and go west young man!
"It was a sharp change for the Miss Universe organization, which was criticized in 2012 after disqualifying transgender woman Jenna Talackova from the Miss Canada competition that year because she was not “naturally born” a woman. After Talackova threatened legal action, the organization — then owned by Donald Trump — changed the rules to allow transgender contestants in its pageants. “As long as she meets the standards of legal gender recognition requirements of Canada, which we understand that she does, Jenna Talackova is free to compete in the 2012 Miss Universe Canada pageant,” Trump attorney Michael Cohen said at the time. “Nobody is capitulating . . . Like all the other contestants, [Talackova] is wished the best of luck by Mr. Trump.” Nor does one have to be a 'boy' to join the Boy Scouts these days. In both cases there are too many lawyers and not enough brains to go around. In other breaking news water is wet.
Nice rant @rube So in summary... everyone is a slave shitty jobs are for slaves everyone employed is also a slave All jobs except self employment come from greedy rapacious corporations enslaving otherwise free humans We are all merely trying to further enslave others (how dare we/they hire wageslaves?) Giving jobs to slaves makes them more slaves (me creating jobs is merely me enslaving 'free' others) Now don't fight it @rube the passing of your 'freedom' will be over rather soon and it's not too painful As long as you don't aspire Out of your slave class Oh and you can check out any time you'd like But you can never leave.. BTW we're as far 'west' as one gets if you 'd noticed
