In response to Armstrong Williams: The aftermath
Williams’ column states, “If Trump gets a second term, he has plans to create 10 million jobs in ten months.”
That won’t be enough to cover the number of jobs that have and will be lost from the “hoax” pandemic.
The Republicans are always partial to business and Democrats are always partial to workers.
The Democrats have passed a bill to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 by 2025, but the Senate and the Republicans won’t move it.
Most of the states who took it on their own to raise the minimum wage are controlled by Democrats.
Most all of the states who accepted expanded Medicaid are controlled by Democrats.
Biden, who came out of the basement last week told QAnon followers to seek mental health before the Affordable Care Act is repealed by Trump and the Republicans.
All workers will be ahead financially if Democrats are in charge.
