Keep in mind the true meaning of Labor Day:
Labor Day is not about hamburgers, hot dogs, or a sunny day off.

It's about you. It's about the worker.

It's about the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. It's about the Ludlow Massacre. 

It's about your honor. It's about your dignity.

The U.S. Congress returns on Tuesday with less than a month left to perform one of its core functions - keeping federal agencies funded and averting a partial government shutdown - a job that it has struggled to perform in recent years.

There seems to be some confusion, hopefully this will clear it up.
A chart with "political left" on the far left, "Political center" in the middle, and "political right" on the far right. The democrats are just slightly left of center, and the republicans are past the "political right" line and are almost at the edge of the graph. Under "political left" the caption reads "Maybe everybody should be able to go to the doctor without entering debt slavery." The caption under "political center" reads "The status quo must be maintained at all costs by the use of judicious decorum and stern, performative letters." the caption under "political right" reads "Orphans are the only REAL renewable resource." An arrow points to an area that contains the left side of the chart. the caption for this area reads "Roughly where i need the next democratic candidate to be."

Honestly, it's been obvious that taxation without representation needed to be corrected. But Dems spent all their time playing footsie and insider trading rather than working for constituents. Voter suppression had been growing, not shrinking for decades and Dems failed to protect us.
