True and we have much more infrastructure

I don’t believe it’s acceptable for thousands to die every year because they can’t afford medical care

Ok but universal healthcare isnt the solution

They can they just don't want to fork over the 60 bucks a month for it and aren't smart enough to get health care at 18

Putting money in the pot early is important for insurance.

Also those people arent your average americans that get jobs. A lot are just people relying on welfare who are to lazy to get a job

Bernie said so himself if you work hard you can get rich.

And yes he did say that which agitated his base.

Thats true because my family came here as immigrants during when Yugoslavia was communist. They were starving. They came here and worked their asses off. They now have cars, house, farm and more

The american dream is possible

Gotta work hard Welfare isn't going to sustain you long term.

They arent dying on the streets

If you work hard you can get rich but not so rich that the Walton family owns more wealth than the bottom 50% of Americans

They didn’t receive welfare or free medicare

1 family should not own more wealth than over 150 million people

Did that family work for it?

No

Yes, so did generations before them

Oh they got rich from no where?

Yes they did. And also wealth doesn't stagnate. Rockerfellers were the richest people to ever exist but now are not.

The Walton family is no different.

They created Wal-Mart, a store that exploits their workers and doesn’t pay them enough

They pay their workers. I wouldn't consider that an exploit.

Ok so if I work at a cash register, I should be payed more?

If their workers do feel exploited they can always quit and find another job.

Minimum wage jobs like walmart aren’t supposed to be something you do your whole life

Contracts are a 2 way street. You and the other party have to agree to them.

Easy to say that but once you quit a job there’s no guarantee you’ll find another one and some people are just stuck on minimum wage jobs because if they leave to look for another job they will end up out on the streets

There is in this country. I see "Help Wanted" signs everywhere i drive as a trucker.

Unemployment today is at the lowest we’ve seen in a while. If you cannot get a job, you aren’t trying hard enough

GG @sarge, you just advanced to level 2!

Thats facts

America is going through the 4th Industrial revolution at this current time.

Its booming.

Its really easy to find a job.

It is.

And about the minimum wage, as FDR said, no business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country

when you gotta say "thats facts" i instantly look at your comment and see its false

Its the law. We have one of those.

How

How is it false?
