RICH PEOPLE DON'T EMPLOY WORKERS.
Unless they have a business that needs labor. Ooh now bezos is paying 15 whoopy ding. He shoulda paid that a long time ago. Walmart pays most people not enough to not qualify for food stamps.
Be that as it may, PEOPLE who are wealthy don't normally employ anybody but a maid and a boat boy.
Buyers employ people. Us consumers. And if we don't make enough money (the vast number of consumers are not making 200 thou or 400 K per couple) They make chicken feed up to 80 K and that is hard to make ends meet if they have a family and two cars, two insurances, school clothes etc. But ones I know barely make 40K. Not everyone is a couple either. They are widowed, divorced, single and married. The best off would be gay men because they command 25% more than a man and woman couple and 50% more than a lesbian couple. But I got side tracked...
We need more regulation not less. They have been deregulating the hell out of everything since the 80s. Why did that plant blow up in Texas? Why is food more unsafe? Why is internet so costly or else it's not worth a crap?
RE Pub Lick ants.
They (politician ones) don't know how to add unless it's into their own pockets.

The economy has been wrecked for the little guy for a very long time but if it takes willpower Biden will fix it. The only thing in his way is the turtle.

I was the little guy, 8 years in the military, no college to speak of, no help from government, or family, ever. But now at 62 I am retiring comfortably.

There is still opportunity out there for EVERYONE that wants to work for it.

We will see if Biden can get the unemployment rate down to where is was under Trump before the Wuhan flu. I truly believe he will not even get close.

He will blame someone for not being able to do it, probably the rich, because they HATE low unemployment.

Have you ever thought about WHO prospers and gains power from high unemployment? Think about it.

That is not a true statement....


The Clinton years were great and Barack Obama had the monster task of cleaning up after Bush's second term....(two unfunded wars, a banking industry meltdown and the stock market crash of 08)

My company struggled through the Obama years, things came back right after Trump was elected, until the flu hit. High Taxes and onerous regulations always affects the economy in a bad way. That is exactly what kept Obama from reaching the low unemployment that Trump achieved. He could have done what Trump did, but he is a Democrat.

You forget Obama's administration brought the unemployment down after the little depression of 2008 when it took a year or two to get back on track. The reason there was such smooth sailing had everything to do with that preparation. If Trump had worried about the pandemic more than how employment numbers looked for his candidacy, he would still be President right now.
It's a big picture, son. But you gotta show a little humanity along the way.

Do you have a source for this bat crap crazy nonsense? Or do you just make it up as you go along?

Little is correct, we struggled along for 8 years, it should have taken 6 months. If Hillary had been elected, we would have struggled along for another 4 years.

If we had someone like Trump in the 30's we would have recovered long before WWII. Mega high taxes kept the depression going far longer than it needed to.

The market crash and banking meltdown was due to the idiots in congress.

2006-2008 the left controlled this country, not the right, and not Bush.
