MODERATORS
The way I put it, I don't like either, but one doesn't want my friends dead, so I'll begrudgingly vote for them.
I desperately want to vote for someone who genuinely supports the workers. There's plenty of demand for American manufacturing, no one wants to take the jobs because they've historically been low paying, grueling, unfulfilling, and dangerous and our culture has repeatedly beat it into people's heads that they are failures if they work in a factory instead of an office (and those in the office deserve protection and support of the government too) I'm not very far left but a government that doesn't support labor doesn't support itself.
Yeah, almost every issue with jobs in the US could be fixed with more pay. "Nobody wants to work anymore" my ass. Paying more would solve literally almost every single problem.
If they want domestic manufacturing, pay people more.
