Eh, Well, I never called you a "Freeloader" Gavin. I said those that are freeloaders. You say you are baffled what people see in Trump. To coin a phrase, Trump is a whole lot smarter that you think he is. But that is for another day.
Back some time ago, before you were born Gavin, people would go to work for a company, most likely with Union representation, work there all their lives and retire with a small pension, usually there was a payroll savings plan for them, and Social Security when they reached 65. And they had a good, if not great retirement
But Gavin, the people got Greedy! They thought the company was making lots of money and they wanted more! And on top of that they elected more "Freeloaders" who also didn't have a pot to P*ss in or a window to throw it out of to Congress. The congress decided to raise taxes on the companies. The companies couldn't pay union wages and high taxes so they started leaving the country. And the workers were left out in the cold, by their own hand. I know some people can't see the forest for the trees. As stated by POGO. We have found the enemy, and it is us. Trump sees it Gavin, do you?
