95% of the results of your productivity is directly stolen from you by the rich elites, the police are hunting you down itching to execute you, healthcare is being dismantled, hopelessness is insanely loving rampant and literally killing people because they turn to drugs and alcohol to at least get some enjoyment out of life

the democrats' solution: we'll get you a slightly better job

Hmm, a big part of what got Trump elected was people feeling that the deck was stacked against them. How can we remind them of that?

Well one of the justifications of having slaves at the governors house in Arkansas was that jobs can give you purpose or some poo poo, right?

There's no jobs Americans won't do.

There are lots of jobs Americans won't do for slave wages in environments that lack health, safety, and environmental regulation/enforcement.

the hidden messsage here is that they know all the unskilled labor jobs are going to be automated away in the immediate future but if they retrain everyone they can give us false hope before flooding the market for skilled-labor jobs even more than it already is

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

I'd be surprised if they were considering automation vs. responding to the impacts of globalization because that whole message is a retread of the 90s.

Dude, shut the gently caress up before you give them any ideas.

putting better wages last also makes it sound like better skills is the gatekeeper for better jobs, which is the gatekeeper for better wages.
