Damage was done prior ... executive controls the regulatory agencies. There were plenty of laws and regulations. Alas, if they weren't enforced by the executive, there might as well not have been any. |

So then, the exact reverse of how everything went to shit in 2006 after the Democrats took over. If 1/2 of Congress being Republicans are all of the problem now, All of the Democrats were the problems then, after all they had it all. |

Way back in this thread I offered a solution ... make those "handouts" LOANS ... where you've got to pay it back once you're on your feet again. If only Bush had done that with his original bailouts, and the republicans hadn't made it a LOT worse, we'd be recovered by now. |

That actually started after WWII, back when we had 51 percent of the economy in manufacturing and half the population we do now. Even Manhattan used to be a big manufacturing center . . . that is until Mayor Wagner started his big spending programs, and manufacturing fled. |

My point was because Selkirk is blaming right now on one party which doesn't have the presidency, and only has one house of congress. Back after 2006, the other party didn't have the presidency and had BOTH houses of Congress. If part of congress is the problem now, even without having the presidency, then logically, all of congress would have been the problem then, and they also didn't have the presidency. |

I'd have less problems with no minimum wage if we had a robust social welfare state, especially one that's basically rigged toward single mothers and not actual singles. Try getting EITC, Medicaid, or public housing when you're single, and then try with a baby in tow and you'll see the difference in how one is treated by the state.It's not the taxpayer's duty to subsidize low-wage employers. |
