Trump, in an effort to to get his bill passed, told thousands of children that Obamacare is bad and rolled out "victims" of Obamacare to discuss how bad it is in front of millions of people. Disgusting as it may be, he's politicking and using the bully pulpit. Democrats, meanwhile, honor a ruthless rear end in a top hat who wants to kill thousands of Americans.

I have a good "free money" policy that the Dems should push to get people excited and lower the wealth gap. Create and push for Commuter's Pay. Every single American worker who works more than 1 hour a day should get +1 hour pay per day for having to get ready/commute to work.

comedyblissoption posted:what a lazy and uninspired troll there's nothing really wrong with that except for the fact that it came from one of the worst public speakers in the Democratic Party the core message of "economic justice is important but we can't stop there - we need to protect civil rights as well" is Cool and Good. it's just that it came from Hillary Clinton, who as always phrased it in basically the worst way possible, and also added a bunch of caveats and maybes to the economic justice part because she's not a good enough liar to convince anyone she actually wants to break up the banks WhiskeyJuvenile posted:I'd bet that these workers are also the same people who aren't voting. who would they vote for? i don't recall any prominent candidates recently coming out in favor of better working conditions for bottom-of-barrel retail and fast food work. the Dems' preferred response to lovely low-wage work is to push education and training and pretend that literally everyone will just be able to class mobility themselves out of the lovely jobs

WhiskeyJuvenile posted:https://twitter.com/DemSocialists/status/889500434414669824  What people keep losing track of is that manufacturing and mining jobs etc were not fit to support a family on, until labor strikes happened and things changed We keep discounting the retail sector as a permanent dead-end industry, but when you come down to it it's one of the only consistent employers of Americans there is left, and we really should be focusing on making those jobs worthy of being held. If your problem is that too many people are stuck working at Wal-Mart, you can either make them all go to night school to learn coding so that maybe just maybe they can tear out each other's throats competing for a Real Job, or alternately you can make Wal-Mart jobs better. got any sevens posted:i wish my rep was dead along with every other neolib in the world, i've voted against the fucker for a decade but he keeps winning anyway because of the fygm shitheads around here I guess I should amend that to "my rep is fine", he's not a raging commie or anything but he's not a corporate shill either  If someone came along to primary him who I liked better I'd vote for them, but I'm not exactly going around ringing doorbells to recruit someone to take him down

SHY NUDIST GRRL posted:There was some piece about how the Dem's have been treating campaigning like marketing, causing dipshits like mook. And it really is the case. They don't have much else to offer, so they try to make up the difference in marketing. as someone whose degree is in marketing, that explains a lot. an organization that manufactures something is somewhat tangibly "locked in" by their choices in product, production methods, location of facilities, logistics, and other physical properties. so if you can't refine any of those traits, that's when you focus on branding and advertising, and you tailor it towards your targeted market. but that's the problem: there is no outwardly-discernible target. The market they've tried to court doesn't exist (moderate republicans) and the larger, existing demographic that does (the personally disenfranchised), is flat-out ignored. as a thought exercise: how the gently caress does tax credits for businesses to train employees convince the average disaffect to give a poo poo?

NYC Mayor Signs On-Call Scheduling Banquote:NEW YORK, NY – Today, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio signed Intro 1387 into law, just days after the New York City Council passed the legislation that bans on-call scheduling for retail workers. This crucial legislation finally ends the abhorrent practice of on-call scheduling – a system of scheduling that disrupts workers’ lives and their families’ lives by requiring them to be available to work even when they are not scheduled to work, and with no guarantee of an actual work shift.
Employers will not be able to cancel a shift within 72 hours of the start of the shift except under extreme conditions like a natural disaster. With worker consent, employers are able to add a shift within 72 hours. Employers will be held accountable for any violations. Link to the bill:http://legistar.council.nyc.gov/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=2900928&GUID=5A7DF104-0104-463E-96FC-A7FB1FDD9B8F&Options=ID%7CText%7C&Search=1387

This warmed-over bullshit is toxic and yet they keep dusting it off and poppin' it back into the microwave thinking this time the voters are really gonna scarf it down because they put it on a nicer plate and added a sprig of plastic parsley.
