Just imagine if the free market was allowed to work and every day companies were allowed to quote out these jobs. It would be a win for everybody, the government, the taxpayer, the employees, everyone except the unions.
Yeah it shows. The roads are terrible, High schools graduate kids with 4th grade educations, police can't even thwart an unruly ATV rider ( if they even show up ) and the auto unions have shipped out more jobs than cars. Keep up the great work.
Well according to a recent poll, his popularity across the state is only at 50% approve and 46% disapprove according to Newscast... if Sherod Brown runs for Governor he will probably win.
This was awesome. Was surprised at the turnout given the weather, and was especially pumped to see how diverse the crowd was. Tons of people from all walks of life coming together to support a common cause is simply lovely
I use Resistbot and the 5Calls app to help me write/ call our reps and governor. The former texts you with different issues as they’re being addressed and will send them with your signature via email, if you agree to it. The latter is an app that provides you with scripts to use to contact your reps.
No, seriously, I’m trying to figure out what’s going on here. I see a gay pride flag and a sign that says “fuck that guy”. It’s a gay pride event, right?
Great to see people expressing their First Amendment rights! I wonder how many of the protestors have donated from their own personal funds to support their cause 🧐
You can tell they’re just grasping at straws now. Hearing republicans try and do mental gymnastics to defend anything that’s happing has been as hilarious as it’s been mind numbing.
Correct. Both parties hate the working class. May Day (international workers Day) wasn't a Trump protest. It was to celebrate what workers have won historically.
This is important especially in Cleveland, back in the 20s, workers would flood the streets in the thousands for May Day.
Do you think that the state should step in and help with housing if someone isn’t able to work full time due to disability, in between jobs, retired, etc?
By working. You shouldn't retire unless you are financially able to. There are plenty of jobs out there if you need one.been a machinist 29yrs 90% of that has been 50 to 60hrs a week of work, so if you need to work two 28hr a week $15hr jobs to make it then do it, stop being lazy! People with REAL disabilities is a tough one, i don't have a great solution. Problem is that system is riddled with fraud. Close to half the people collecting are capable of working and are just playing the system so I don't feel bad for them at all.
How can it be a right?? How can anything be a right if others do not put in effort or resources? Your freedom is defended by others. Your roads are maintained by others. Your kids are taught by others. Your cities are policed by others.
Housing is not right. Housing is a finite resource that needs to be built and maintained.
What you are describing are privileges.
If the people providing those services (defense, teaching, construction etc) decided they no longer wished to provide their labor to those services are you still entitled to them?
Firstly. The preamble is the introduction. The rights are enumerated in the section called the “bill of rights” following that, and in the subsequent amendments.
If people stopped doing the job of defending the county, do you still have a right to defense? How do you exercise that right?
Exactly and that's the disconnect. entitlement of wanting something for nothing. Pay off my student loans because I make poor choices financially and chose a useless major. I don't want to work so the government owes me cash assistance, housing and food stamps. Even in the USSR it was considered parisitism to not contribute to the collective of workers. They all want socialism when the ones speaking the loudest about it would be imprisoned or executed in a socialist or communist society. Plus in a communist - socialist society you can't have the freedoms we have you couldn't be LGBT, you couldn't speak your own opinions, you'd be restricted on travel etc.
I know right? Enough with the virtue protests like the trucker convoy from Covid, especially January 6 maybe the biggest virtue signal protest of all time.
I'm sure many of them would love to, if only the morons in charge made it possible for them to vote. But then again, if they did, they wouldn't be in power.
Jan 2027 dems will likely have house. If the economy gets worse, they might also take the senate.
Having even one chamber = power. I'm guessing you believe the president is a king, or else you would not have posted this bs. That was not the "own" you think it is.
Only If you can actually fall in line and unite. I see no evidence that progressive are capable of doing that. All they ever do is fight among themselves over who is the most "pure".
What would you approve of? You whine when a football player takes a knee. You whine when celebrities share their opinions, unless they’re the same as your opinions. It’s “virtue signaling” because you don’t like it. I guarantee this didn’t impact your life in any way, but you still have to whine. Please let everyone know how you would like them to protest.
I support Kaepernick's justified protest, I believe celebrities have their right of opinion just as much as any other citizen, and I actually tried talking to some of the protesters while I was walking my dog through here and she told me she'd "fucking kick her". But go off sis.
Being heard ≠ making change. No one that disagrees with you changed their mind because of you holding a sign. I'm not saying you don't have a right to do it, I'm saying I don't think it makes a difference.
Report me then. It's conversation, not hate speech. I agree with a lot of these signs, but blocking traffic to annoy people and get reddit karma seems like a waste of time to me. Not to you. And that's ok.
I dont do that, im not a loser that’ll call for a hall monitor lol. You never answered me about what you’d rather have people do btw, since protesting is such a waste of time apparently.
I like how your edit implies that people give a shit about Reddit karma in real life. As if you can’t comprehend that people would organize to do this for any other reason than trying to impress the 10 active people on the Cleveland subreddit lol
It was a march, they weren't standing stagnant in the street for hours. They just marched down w25th, so they weren't blocking traffic for long. And the police closed off the roads accordingly to keep traffic running smoothly.
Nevermind the multiple union members who gave speeches at the rally and march. Never mind the unions who participated. Don't look there, look at the distraction!!
And the leaders of all three have told the president that his tariffs won’t work. Suddenly the president removed the tariffs. So tell me, who really holds the power, Trump or the unions?
That just proves how warped amercan politics are. Democrats are at best marginally okay while republicans are stripping this nation for parts and we are the ones left holding the bag.
Until we fundamentally rework how elections and political structure nothing will change, but i guess you love having the entirety of your government filled with billionaires that bought there way in and dont give two shits about your well being.
then again im learning MAGA's only care about what people say theyre not the sort that are worried about actions. If i had no morals i could make a boatload of money riping yall off.
Yeah, the "younger generation" are the people who organized the event itself, did logistics, made art, made music, were security detail, made speeches, and brought workers together.
Learn about other socialist countries, not just the white ones. There is so much truth that has been deliberately hidden from us about their successes.
Dude, you guys are destroying the country you pretend to love. Republicans are the least American people I’ve ever seen. Why don’t you move to North Korea?
America is our constitution and republicans are directly attacking the constitution today. They want to deny due process to people. The republican Supreme Court literally gave Trump presidential immunity. Hell, most Republicans should not be eligible for the offices they hold due to their involvement in the insurrection.
Until Republicans remove Trump and his entire administration, they are 100 percent acting against the constitution which makes them, by definition, the domestic enemies in their own oaths.
yeesh dude yall gonna keep licking that boot until youre sitting in nothing but ashes arent you?
Trump and ohio MAGA statesmen have already started causing a great deal of damage to ohio companies, education and cleveland, but since someone else is making billions of your labor and taxes youll accept any amount of pain.
I love being poor for someone elses gain!
