She talks like Obama and sounds like a politician. I hate it when they give those "yesses" in between when someone's talking too them, or telling a story, like they relate. It's so fucking fake. I agree with her on wars and countries we don't belong in, we're not the world's police, shouldn't be able to write policy that directly benefits you, but all that good ole boy shit will never change. She didn't mention immigration at all, so that scares me. She has no shot of winning.
Off base with reality? I agree, any candidate that doesn't give at least a nod to what is basically a war machine of a country has little chance being elected President. But that reality includes a failure to provide a decent social program network including proper care for the veterans who fight your faux wars.

I mean listening to a politician is hard enough but do you really want to listen to one more towing the line?

so you think employers paying their employees a living wage is more comical than the taxpayers having to subsidize their government benefits?

Yes, I know Chang, but she's prolly going into town and giving kids measles shots. She isn't a combat medic or a combat vet. She's in the fucking national guard.

If you're industry is already looking ahead to robotics, and you have to increase the wage significantly, there's no reason why they wouldn't go ahead and pull the trigger. Also, you can't have McDonalds bump their employee pay up to $15, and not expect a bump at the menu.
Also, a huge tax reform is needed, and we need to sew up things like welfare and ACA.

Honestly Jim, do you REALLY feel like it's fair that I pay for a woman who hasn't worked in 10 years to just keep shitting out kids?
