I have a friend whom I love but he's definitely in the basket, a self-proclaimed angry white man. He's always complaining about jobs, taxes, etc. but if he works 3 days a week he wants a medal. The phrase "trades cotton" comes to mind. (He's in sales. Of some sort.) Anyway, he was waxing poetic about the election results, what it means to hard-working men, etc. and how great DJT was. His wife, who works long hours as a PT, asked. "Does he have a magic formula to get you off your ass?"  |

Oh my you want trump to fix that? DH was just talking to me yesterday about how people believe that manufacturing jobs are all being lost to overseas laborers but that a study showed that it is actually automation that is the cause of the majority of factory job loss. That's a troubling issue for many, to be sure. But unless any president is going to find a way to actually somehow ban the technology behind the machines, there's not going to be much that can be done about the job loss/shift in jobs due to this particular issue.  I think that people of any political beliefs often mistakenly believe that any politician can do far more than they actually can. Save |
