The only difference between trump and any other right leaning politician since the 80s is that trump says the quiet parts out loud. Being a criminal doesn't automatically win you a ~90% party approval rating for wanting to build a mas

I think the opening was meant to show the opposing perspectives on each politician. There's no question that the Fox Newses of the world like to portray AOC as a raving lunatic who is moments away from erecting guillotines and starting

What? Nobody is claiming that they don't. What is being claimed is that the majority of those employees are not seeing an increased benefit (wages) proportional to the increased profits of the company they work for, whereas shareholder

There are plenty of examples where rising profits in an industry have led to workforce downsizing, not job creation. Is there any data to show that these excessive eyewear profits are being used to create new jobs?

Just a warning to mobile users: The upper link can absolutely grind Android Chrome to a halt. Force closing the app doesn't fix it either, as chrome reopens the last tab you had open, so the only way out is to completely wipe the brows
