More like “screw you,” I’ve been laid off 4 times in my career, all by actions directly attributable to Democrat administrations, despite education and hard work, so I didn't get mine, now it’s your turn to experience what the private sector has.

I’m a little skeptical about the “directly attributable to democrat administration” part, let’s just say that part is accurate.

Why should anybody wish suffering or hardship on others, just because they had to endure it? Is that in the Bible or something? Is that how we should govern the country? Just take turns screwing over groups of fellow citizens?

Let me clarify. The day Clinton signed NAFTA the company I worked for shipped jobs to Juarez, Mexico. The day Obama granted favorable trade status to China the company I worked for shipped jobs to Dongguan, China. The day Obama declared his war on coal, the company I worked for cut 40% of its workforce because coal crushing equipment was that big of a part of their business. The day Biden shut down the Keystone pipeline, the company I had previously worked for cut 50% of their workforce because they built oil shale separation equipment.

So yes, direct action by Democrat administrations.

As for wishing hardship on others, those are your words, not mine. I wish hardship on no one. But they didn’t give a hoot about me and my hardships, so I guess my attitude is “sorry this happened to you, but it’s your turn in the barrel.” That’s quite different.

And none of it has anything to do with governing the country. Just running a more efficient organization, of which the government happens to be one.

So nothing eh? An uncomfortable topic for sure. 

Will be interesting to see looking back on this period. Shameful.

If you are referring to the Bannon thing you posted, do you still fall for “pull my finger” as well?

Yeah. After Musks salute - the Bannon salute and a Presidential hopeful of mexico's salute. 

They're doing this at your parties political action conference.

But yeah, pull my finger. Wonder what those who fought in WW2 would think eh?

Since my Dad earned 4 Purple Hearts in WWII, froze his feet during the Battle of the Bulge that effected him the rest of his life, ruined his hearing, saw 6 of 10 of his small town friends not come home, shot people in the face at arms length before they did the same to him, and had a brother carried out with Murrells Marauders, I know what he would think — there is real evil in this world and it needed confronted (he gave up a full boat scholarship to Rice Medical school to go to war for what he thought was right, never was able to get back to school, ended up getting laid off 3 times, each under a democratic administration, all of which he voted for by the way, because that is what union members did, and died a hollow shell of what he thought a man should be for his generation) and there is faux outrage at mindless crap, often made up, staged, or deliberately interpreted by those who are far less than he was, went through far less than he did, and seek far more attention over nothing.

So yeah, getting one’s knickers in a knot over something like this, when living the privileged life that his sacrifice, his brother’s sacrifices, his town’s sacrifices is a kin to getting fooled again by “pull my finger” and thinking it is of some great importance.
