I got messages from this one too... Kept trying to get me to switch to zangi to talk to it

It's a problem because illegal immigrants contribute more to society and the economy than they consume. They also should have been allowed to become an American citizen as easily as anyone born here in the first place, and be treated the same as anyone under the law. Deporting them hurts everyone.

Assuming you're correct, this means the private market employee deserves more than they're getting from their shitty private employer... Not that the public employee deserves less

This is the correct answer... As long as there's no patchouli in it... That shit smells awful

The event itself might not be a signal of the status of the system... But the nearly unanimous reaction of the peasant working class certainly was

The first Obama primary was the last real one

Sounds like those 105 employees aren't being paid what they should be. Pay them more. Leave this guy's pay alone.

Personally I'd say, if top level CEO pay is $6.5m, and we set that as reasonable pay for that level job, and maybe we say the top should earn 20x the bottom, then the average pay in the US should be $325k. Which sounds perfectly reasonable to me. Stop thinking in terms of dragging the top down... Think in terms of lifting everyone else up. If the owners need to own less for this to happen, then so be it

Thanks for the info!

I guess as a start, the DNC can and should run big money/dark money/bribe free primaries. But they refuse to run free and fair primaries because they only want their corporately anointed shills to make it to the general election. Changing how the primaries are done should be top of the list when we take over the DNC and replace the shills with progressives.
