The people in cities and in blue states made this economic turn around happen. Trump does not deserve the credit he will claim. Burn it down.
Edit: If you leave this thread learning anything please let it be this one thing. Organic political movement isn't schemed up in a board room or carefully planned and executed every step of the way. It starts inside of you and people like you and you lend your support not knowing the outcome but believing in the cause. If it's not here, it's not here. I don't mean to supply you with fuel needed but only the spark to ignite flame waiting to be ignited.
I'm out though.
Hey, wages rising would at least be nice.
...not going to happen though, more likely to see an increase in prison labour
Wages rising? No.
Salaries rising? A little.
Executive pay and bonuses? Huge.
Maybe for some things, like working in fields. (Maybe. That would be a preeeeeettttttty good time for someone to pull a runner.) Probably not for construction, where you'd have to be giving inmates access to things that readily be used as weapons. Same with meat packing, where they'd literally be working with knives.
If people that are left of center can get their shit together some day, they really need to rewrite that amendment to ban all involuntary servitude.
Most inmates aren't actually dangerous, and can probably be trusted with a framing nailer. The percentage of harmless inmates will probably increase, as the Republican administration encourages laws that serve no purpose besides locking up black people and leftists, and clamps down on states that oppose them.
If you live in a legal weed state, start legally buying weed with the intent to stash it for the next 4 years. Stoners are gonna be a great source of prison labour
