filtered masks on jobsites with particles is still not a hard requirement, pay is not keeping up with the cost of living, no universal healthcare

welcome to the US

in the US it is better to bleed out than to call 911

much worse here than the media is making it out to be with both the Democrats and the Republicans being bought they make sure nothing changes because people papered are easier to track and control

once arrested in the US charged or not you are now in the system marked/tagged and ready for exploitation for the remainder of your life

US never got over losing the free labor force it once had and now megacorps look to prisons for free labor and after incarceration cheap underpaid workers that have less rights

or Edge which fully supports Manifest V2

$15 an hour will not afford you housing, food, and healthcare

you mean that $15 an hour Obama wanted 16 years ago that they keep dangling over our heads until we vote for them?

At the same time, we’re pushing to guarantee workers the pay, benefits, and protections they deserve as well. We passed the Butch Lewis Act, keeping over 2 million people’s hard-earned pensions solvent. We also raised the minimum wage for federal contractors to $17.20 an hour, and will keep pushing Congress to increase it to at least $15 for all Americans. We’re making millions more hourly workers eligible for overtime pay; and we’ve cracked down on wage theft and exploitation, recovering over $750 million for low-wage workers wrongly denied pay. We’re making it harder for employers to misclassify workers as independent contractors to avoid paying them full pay and benefits. We’re banning most non-compete agreements, freeing workers to move between jobs and negotiate. And we’ve restricted mandatory arbitration, so fewer employers can silence wronged employees in a workplace dispute

port workers are striking stating $80,000 a year is not enough, and you think $15 will not only cut it today but also buy a house with Harris’s plans

what good is a fixed amount to buy a house when the minimum wage is still $7.25?

my response had nothing to do with “But not Trump.” or what Harris’s donors have her working towards

Harris did not grow up in a poor, mostly black neighborhood with people that are underpaid, sick from pollution such as local oil/fracking and no healthcare, free from police oppression, an underfunded education system, and instead her politics are akin to someone with an HOA background

should matter that we the citizens have proper representation in our government and is part of the reason our laws/policies do not mirror the citizens

her heart is on the right not in the right such as her positions on oil/fracking, right leaning immigration policies, not supporting a modern living wage, pro-police stance

if Harris would have grown up in a predominately black neighborhood with everything that involves down to pollution her platform would be a different story

the tallies are misleading below is the actual skinny

Walz: “When Iranian missiles did fall near U.S. troops and they received traumatic brain injuries, Donald Trump wrote it off as ‘headaches.’”

True.

Walz: “Sen. Vance has said that there’s a climate problem in the past. Donald Trump called it (climate change) a hoax and then joked that these things would make more beachfront property to be able to invest in.”

True.

Walz: “We are producing more natural gas and more oil at any time than we ever have.”

True.

Walz: “And the good news on this is, is the last 12 months saw the largest decrease in opioid deaths in our nation’s history.”

Mostly True.

Walz: Trump “gave the tax cuts that predominantly went to the top class. What happened there was an $8 trillion increase in the national debt, the largest ever.”

Mostly True.

Vance: “What (Harris has) actually done instead is drive the cost of food higher by 25%, drive the cost of housing higher by about 60%.”

Half True.

Vance: Donald Trump “peacefully gave over power on January the 20th as we have done for 250 years in this country.”

Mostly False.

Vance: “So there’s an application called the CBP One app, where you can go on as an illegal migrant, apply for asylum or apply for parole and be granted legal status.”

Mostly False.

Vance: “Kamala Harris let in fentanyl into our communities at record levels.”

Mostly False.

Walz: “Donald Trump hasn’t paid any federal tax in the last 15 years. The last year as president.”

Mostly False.

Vance: Donald Trump “peacefully gave over power on January the 20th as we have done for 250 years in this country.”

Mostly False.

Walz: “Their Project 2025 is gonna have a registry of pregnancies.”

False.

Vance: “As I read the Minnesota law that (Walz) signed into law … it says that a doctor who presides over an abortion where the baby survives, the doctor is under no obligation to provide lifesaving care to a baby who survives a botched late-term abortion.”

False.

Vance: “Iran, which launched this attack (on Israel), has received over $100 billion and unfrozen assets, thanks to the Kamala Harris administration.”

False.

Vance: “Donald Trump could have destroyed the (Affordable Care Act). Instead, he worked in a bipartisan way to ensure that Americans had access to affordable care.”

False.

so states with cannabis dispensaries don’t count? or the states allowing abortion?

state laws do supersede federal all the time unless the state likes the federal version better

no but the guise of religion may be there

this is just like cannabis and immigrants and now women are on the list

the more we criminalize the more citizens get put on the list such as probation

criminals have to be papered and tracked and they have less rights makes them easier to handled and they already have a task force just for that called police that help keep us all in our proper places

this is what happens when fifty of the United States are allowed to have state laws override federal laws

this will only get resolved when the individual states are made to follow one set of federal laws for everybody no matter which state they happen to be in

which means the Democrat and Republican Partys’ actions are coordinated based on the donors’ wishes not the people’s

maybe because the Republican’s immigration platform mirrors the Democrat’s

very closed borders with less immigration and more border security to match the pro police stances combined with no plans to raise the minimum wage or to give workers more rights along with no healthcare reform

everybody is getting fucked this election except for the donors paying the Republicans and Democrats to keep things the way they were

always the ER

the clinic in my area has no available appointments until several months out so it is the ER or hope your condition is something that can wait a long time before treatment

so Harris acts like a Democrat and leans to the left?

was not aware that Harris supports raising the minimum, supports a more left leaning progressive approach to immigration, supports the planet with an anti oil/fracking platform, supports police reform, is against genocide

from the recent articles and the history of Harris and Walz had gotten a different picture painted

Harris plans to beat Republicans by acting more Republican and by leaning farther to the right on issues like immigration

no matter who wins we get more Republican right leaning laws and politics with no progress

not that great still maybe Democrats should stop acting like Republicans

would not have to put out so much effort to make themselves look good if they would just support the people

Tim Walz: 40% positive, 33% negative

Taylor Swift: 33% positive, 27% negative

Kamala Harris: 48% positive, 45% negative

the US government in a bipartisan Democrat/Republican effort is attempting to label as many citizens as possible as criminals in order to control us

people whose skin color was not white, drugged out hippies, and illegals were not enough to satisfy their hunger for power they want all of us now

no paywall
