"the basket of deplorable includes anyone who is not explicitly left wing." Nah. It tends to include neo-nazis, neo-confederates, racists, sexists, white supremacists, kiddy diddlers, and the like. It's not a particularly d

Oh yeah, as a homebrewer, I can attest to the fact that the IPAs I brew are because I want to be trendy and cool and hip and not because I like them. Of course not. It's much more important for me to have put all that time and invest

So you have, as I said previously, no understanding of either term. Why do you keep dodging my real point? Go make your great idea entirely by yourself. Then you can keep all the moneys. Great ideas are a dime a bale. Making them happen

Oh yes, the tech sector. You're special . You 're not replaceable. Those... those workers ... They're replaceable. You're special. You negotiated and got a whole dime more for yourself. That makes you better t

What nonsense. You do know there were other things going on in Detroit that caused the white flight of the 60s and 70s? Your oversimplification of the collapse of Detroit because of the ebil unions would seem to ignore the unrest of the

And it's not funny inthe slightest how that's the case. You of course ignore my main point. Go make your earth shattering life changing product without labor and see how far you get. You throw around buzz words like communism an

What nonsense. Organized labor is the only force that has ever brought any parity between labor and management. Do you think a 40 hour week and other benefits were magnanimously bestowed on workers by management? Unions are the only forc

This article is kind of silly, as it seems to be based on the idea that nothing would be done to change the layout of these buildings before opening them up as living facilities. There's no reason each floor couldn't be gutted an

Let me make it a bit clearer. Can you tell the difference between beer and root beer? Then perhaps you can tell the difference between socialism and national socialism. Not the least of which is the alliance with fascist Italy. And plea

Of course. Which is why when the nazis came to power one of their first acts was to murder or jail all the actual socialists and communists. I suggest you try reading from other sources that don't jibe with your preconceived notions

As the exception to that rule, I changed careers completely in my 60s, and picked up yet another at 66. You are welcome to remain in a bucket, I'm way too busy.
