It also plays to the jealousy factor. "Look at all those fatcat CEOs living large, while they're workers slide downhill"

Add in a population that is increasingly ignorant with access to the worlds fastest mode of mass communication and it's the perfect recipe for disaster.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Maybe that's why some theologians have theorized that "The Beast" is actually not a person or living being, but the computer or technology or something along those lines. Don't want to drift the thread too far with that...

This story is being reported by some now, but it first came out last August
Cortez: “The restaurant I used to work at is closing its doors. I swung by today to say hi one last time, and kid around with friends like old times,”
The Coffee Shop in Union Square will close down this fall after nearly 28 years in business. Co-owner and President Charles Milite announced the decision to shut the doors to its 150 employees last month.
Owner Milite: “The times have changed in our industry,” “The rents are very high and now the minimum wage is going up and we have a huge number of employees.”

I'm surprised we haven't seen introduction of 'mandatory minimum TIPS' in addition to menu prices.

From the magazine that was recently valued and sold for...$1. Being on the cover of MAD magazine would carry more weight than showing up in 'out of Time'.
But keep pushing her on the American public. She's the gift that keeps on giving for conservatives.

When do you know you're totally wrong? When even allies can't support your insanity.

It's not just that she's stupid, ignorant and misguided- it's that she's defiantly and aggressively stupid, ignorant and misguided. A person who learns from their mistakes can be forgiven for getting it wrong, but someone like this deserves all the derision being heaped upon them. Goddamn, girlie. Just shut your fucking mouth for a while, huh? It's apparent that you are incapable of learning or even admitting to your mistakes, but just close your stupid yap for few minutes, huh?
McConnell has scheduled a senate procedural vote on Green New Deal for tomorrow.
By pushing for a vote, McConnell hopes to see how far Democrats are willing to go to align themselves with the party’s new progressive wing.
“Just a good old-fashioned, state-planned economy. Garden-variety 20th-century socialism,” McConnell said in a recent speech. “ Our Democratic colleagues have taken all the debunked philosophies of the last hundred years, rolled them into one giant package, and thrown a little ‘green’ paint on them to make them look new .”
Some Democrats said they plan to vote “present” on the resolution to signal their opposition to what they call a “sham” vote that seeks to quash public debate by blocking public hearings or expert testimony about the consequences of climate change.
In response to her tweet, some on social media mocked Ocasio-Cortez for being upset that her proposed legislation will get a vote.
“Seems odd to introduce legislation with lots of fanfare if you don’t want it to receive a vote?,” one user wrote.
“This has to be the first time a sitting congressperson has ever advocated for NOT holding a vote on their own ideas,” another tweeted in response.
“Someone seems weirdly upset that the Senate will be voting on their plan," another wrote.

This probably needs its own thread, but its really troubling how the Dems are organizing at the state and local level to really go after all the jobs that fly under the radar, like secretaries of state, attorneys general and state and district attorneys. I really hope the RNC and other Republican groups are working just as hard on all levels.
