Very southern Mn | It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to see that the new seat holders not exactly pro business. The stock market affects everybody, how many companies have their pension money into market? How many people have their IRA,s even if just a couple of thousand a year, it still makes a difference in their future Retirement. How many retirees are living off the stock market? I don’t argue that there has been massive misuse of small investor etc, but pales in comparison of our government.
There is a lot of people not making ends meet, but there is also a lot of stuff families are paying for today that 20 -30 years ago they didn’t worry about. Designer clothes for 4 yr olds, cell phone plans for whole family ( including 8 and 10 yr olds) , cable tv bills over a 100$ to 200. Cars with negative equity etc. because we have to drive the lastest. Credit card balances that are crazy. How many people make the choice to buy something for today vs putting something away for tomorrow? Having access to a shopping center on our laptops probably doesn’t help. I don’t disagree that working man is getting stretched hard, but instead of teaching social justice, maybe alittle bit of simple math would be a start. The pressure that social media puts on todays family is crazy.
Maybe taxing the working guy to death to support people that don’t want to work isn't such a good idea neither. Look how the blue states have performed and how the red states have performed and try to argue that the blue wave will be good for working families. Look at which states small business are growing and thriving and which states they are shrinking and leaving. This isn’t rocket science | |
