Lack of Workers

And yet no one has been charged with much except trespassing and destruction of Govt property.
until now....

 
This thread has a lot of good information. I dont mind listening to views that I may not agree with. I may actually learn something.
This thread has a lot of talking points, misinformation and/or flat out lies. You can decide which is which. It's pointless correcting it when they are not here to be educated, they are here to do the bidding of their masters. They are simply pawns.
The basic difference between those with political interests is, one group has a hard time defining anything the federal government should not be involved with and the other group has a hard time defining anything the federal government should be involved with. I have no problem admitting I am in the latter group.
I have zero respect or tolerance for anyone who votes to restrict my 2A rights and then has the added audacity to pretend they are a 'centrist'. The most rabid leftists, and invariably statists, I know all proclaim themselves centrists.

Thank you! It blows my mind that some gun owners can vote democrat.
 
Those people posted weeks in advance stating what they would do. The DOJ collected social media, text messages, and forum posts detailing the plans of Jan 6. Some of them made videos and posted to social media earlier in the day or the day before and stated what they were there to do. There were even people who had shirts and banners professionally made that stated what was going to happen.
Well apparently none of that was enough for the DOJ to rule that it was an organized event with the intention of storming the capitol. I dunno, I'm just going on what the findings are
 
No other protest resulted in storming a federal building under the threat of hanging political figures. Where else did thousands of people attack police officers with barricades, bear mace, bats and sticks? What other protesters smashed media cameras, broke into and destroyed a historic building, burned government documents, stole equipment, and defaced historic art?

That has never ever happened.

Several Officers died as a result of injuries. If you hit someone with your car today and they die next week from it, it’s still murder.
Your right, but there was that time that a bombing inside the capitol from the weather underground, or I dunno all the other times there were bombings and violent acts at the capitol. Maybe review a little bit of history before saying never before, I guess technically this particular form of violence hasn't happened before, but the Jan 6 thing was arguably one of the least violent incidents at the capitol.

Well stated, couldn't agree more!
 
What Democrat has ever said just open the borders and let anyone in? As for free handouts, the government gives more handouts to corporations like banks, auto companies, lockheed, fannie mae, and a slew of other massive companies. The pennies the average person receives don't even add up to 1% of what corporations get.

Socialism is an economic concept. Democracy is a political concept. Social programs are not the same as socialism. Every democracy is based on social programs, thus why America was founded on "Democratic socialism". A lot of Republicans can't seem to differentiate (I don't identify as a party by the way).

Taxes are a social program that literally fund the nation. From elementary school and public roads, to the right to be free and vote, are all products of social programs. Without those programs, a democracy becomes a totalitarian dictatorship.

Russia is a federal democratic state. Russia is a federative, law-based state with a republican form of government. The central government retains significant authority, but regional and local governments have an array of power (sound familiar?). In practice, however, it is a dictatorship. The American republican party models their policies after, but refuse to admit it's the same structure as Russia. Getting rid of social programs is the only difference.

The Republican Party is in fact more libertarian and favor laissez-faire style economics. Republicans prefer to let corporations run their course with less regulation; thus, they are the more corporatist party and believe in Reaganomics (trickle-down economics). Republicans rationalize viewpoints by saying deregulation is “necessary for technological progression” or “best for the consumer” or that the “money trickles down to the poor in the long-run”. History has proven that is not how Democracy works and that it cannot work that way. That method leads to Totalitarian rule, with the rich/ powerful politicians being in the pockets of corporations, without any sort of public governance or input from the general public on laws and conduct. At least in America, we have more freedoms than in Russia.

The majority of people on social programs are actually Americans working a minimum of 32 hours/ week. And social programs do benefit the country as a whole. Without it the national GDP would drop, schools would suffer, cost of living would multiple, individual rights would diminish, sole businesses would evaporate and government would dictate everything. Again, take a look at Russia.
Democrats never come right out and say they want open borders
They don’t have the courage for that

But they just encourage them to come and let them waltz across the border and give them free everything , instead of deporting them .


And why hasn’t the democrats running the fedgov located and prosecuted the guy that is on video begging everyone to go to the capitol?

Could it be that he was a fed ?
One of the many feds Planted in the crowd trying to get them to riot ?
 
To run my shift (3rd) I need 36 people, tonight I had 17. I'm supposed to get around 10 new hires tomorrow from their training class today. 5 won't make it till the end of the week. Job is easy super easy. Simply load and unload parts. Plenty of OT and double time if you want it. No one wants it though.
What’s the pay and what’s the hours?

Most people I hear these days won’t work somewhere that doesn’t have unlimited PTO AND work remotely,
