It isn't just manufacturing, it is rampant outsourcing across industries that has constrained natural wage growth. Both Republicans and Democrats have been happy cheerleaders for unrestrained globalization since the 1990s.

This is correct. Please do see reform on visas, this is an important component. It is the one place I agree with Trump/Vance, although not on the racist rationale. The reality is both Democrats and Republicans have undercut the labor market and thus the stagnation in wages and jobs.

It might seem like hell has frozen over, but I completely agree with him for different reasons. This is something that Democrats must be championing, not out of racism but for preventing companies using visas to undercut workers and wages.

This did not work out for Joe Biden when he did the same thing.

Ha. Coin operated tool. One of the cheerleaders of globalism, NAFTA, the rise of Chinese becoming the dominate manufacturer for the US market. He gave rise to the inquality, which ushered in the grievance and resentment to fuel this facist regime.

Not what I'm saying, that was always some BS. Of course the women get it. Just saying the regime ain't picky.

You can scratch the word woman. Hatred is the central organizing principle. The anger gets directed at everyone except the wealthy which tells you quite a bit.

Of course it is. Do we think the master is different? I know I sound like a crazy Marxist, but if the shoe fits.

I hope for the sake of the Democratic party and our democracy they take your advice. Otherwise the people will have their way but it will be ugly.

You are being kind with this advertisement. I am thinking of things that can not be posted on social media. Once this regime and it's enablers is removed there needs to be accountability and ironclad protections put in place. This cannot happen again.

I don't think anyone wants to see Republicans in power. I get they are trying to make James T. the "other" doesn't eat meat, saying he isn't a "man". He needs to be on the attack and not vacillate on civil rights.

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
that has given rise to the conditions where facism can thrive.

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
I honestly didn't expect the heat. The reason I don't like chuck schumer and hakeem jeffries (and other democratic leaders) is because they have proven to be coin operated for corporate interests and have shown little or no backbone to be a true opposition to both facism and the crony capitalism

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
This. When the time to step up (on whatever issue; economic, foriegn policy, civil rights) you will find a handful of "moderates" that will sink the legisilation or water it down so that it is ineffective. Then you are ask yourself, what is the point of the "win".

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
I think the statement comes from parties historically being broadly in alignment with economic intrests that benefit corporations (things like crime, trade, taxes, war) vs worker interests. I know there are differences, but they are not stark and bold; aka FDR.

I have now issues James Talerico as a whole, and I suspect most democrats support him as well. You can be disappointed in a position and still support a candidate

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
That sees little to now difference between the parties; free trade, never ending wars, whatever the way the wind is blowing support of civil rights.

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
I get it. You are desparate for a win no matter what. I want the destruction to stop too. Historically there is a segment of democrats would cave on economic issues, civil rights issues, foriegn policy issues. That is why you end up with a not insignficant portion of the population ->

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
Dang. I guess I have new label. I am not sure how you got to that conclusion. I would think that (some) democratics over the last 60 years being held captive to corporate interests over working interests is a problem?

Good. They made their bed, now they can lay in it. Next, do the enablers who did little or nothing. Looking at you Chuck

Van Jones. The man is a coin operated vending machine. A clown for his masters.

You know the answer. I don't want to alienate a segment of the market that will continue to provide revenue to me. Coward. Also screw those who are seeking to silence the rightful opposition to genocide in Israel.

Are we suprised?

Nah, we in the US will let the market have its way feeding us to the population to the wood chipper. Could we do something to ease into the transition? yes; will we do something ... no.

That is correct, this the humane proposal

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 26/08/2026
Funny. Let me guess the way to shrink the deficit is punishing austerity and low tax rates on the "job creators" to put a booster rocket on economic growth? I hope the blood money you live on to serve your masters is worth it.

Yes and so should you. No Medicare for all? Continue to prop up a genocidal regime in Israel? Go find a job in the Republican party.

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
This is what happens when you are coin operated. Jeffries, Schumer and more need to go. Is this to find "common ground" on Israel? Even worse ...

What is wrong with him? I believe we are going to have to hold democratic leaders accountable too for the harm they are doing.

Eric Marts @ericmarts.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
I am confident that voters want accountability, democratic leaders ... Jeffries, Schumer... not so much ...
