She got the debate going and it’ll draw a distinction between the dem candidate and Team Trump Treason and “we dig coal.”

And no way should she have a cabinet position. Her immaturity would eliminate her from my consideration, I can say that. Her comments to Delaney telling him to 'sashay' away was yet another example of her not quite being ready for the big time."I'll use the magic word - let's just shut the fuck up, please."

I've been watching more videos of her. I've completely switched stances. She's incredibly well informed and takes people to task. Dig it.Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall0

Here is a good topic she discusses. Wage increases.
I hate when someone says "for a bartender, $174K a year is quite an increase!" Sure it is but look where she has to live now, what her job entails, whom she has to hire. That 55k all around for her staff won't last long if she wants to retain good people.
I like her stance on this and opposition to what she is advocating is pure uncalled for bias.

Second, I agree that the bartender from Queens swipe is stupid.
Third, I think her argument on why they should get a raise, that it reduces the pressure to be corrupt, is completely flawed. Quid pro quo type corruption in congress is related to money flowing into campaigns, not directly into the purses. If you raking from your campaign, you are breaking the law and a 2% COLA every year isn't stopping that.0 -
BTW, her staff money doesn't come out of her 174k. That's her salary. There's a budget for staff.0

It drives me nuts that congress is in charge of approving their own pay raises. That said, something like a COLA keeps it more ethical. I don't know what the right level of pay is, but a COLA seems reasonable.
I think her point about people taking $ if they don;t get pay raises is pretty stupid though. There was a COLA for a long time no? Did it stop the lobbying? Didn't think so. Why can we just have an honest discussion about it.hippiemom = goodness0 -

More of this in politics would be nice. Yes, birth control should be free. Anything to keep more people off the planet we should invest in. Maybe abortion should free???Give Peas A Chance…0 -
