Nancy Pelosi is a Grande Dame, who merits a helluva lot of respect.

@TiltedTalkDomagoy how are tax credits to purchase health insurance IN THE PRIVATE MARKET the same as say something like the NHS in the UK?
-
@TiltedTalkDomagoy: Oh give me a fucking break. You cannot convince me these people making tens of billions of dollars exploiting the workers in this country and others can't afford to give their workers a living wage. Everyone I know who is unemployed wants very much to work. But they need a job they can actually live on. Not part time minimum wage.
Fact: Before Reagan began the reversal of tariffs it was more profitable for companies to employ in this country, and they did.
-
@judyleasugar97 Simple math on living wage: If the cost of employing someone is greater than the revenue that worker would bring in, that worker doesn't get hired... Your claim about people wanting to work is 100% inconsistent with reality - statistics prove that unemp checks make people stay unemployed longer. Furthermore, if welfare worked, it would get people OFF welfare, not keep them on it... And your general statement on tariffs means nothing - look at the fallout from SmootHawley.
-
@TiltedTalkDomagoy: According to inflation a living wage is $15.00 an hour. This should be the minimum. There were tarrifs for many years and the economy didn't go under. It's a myth that people don't want to work. There are a few rotten apples but most people do want to work and take care of their families. I guess you haven't heard about the high jobless rate. Welfare is all some people have.
-
@judyleasugar97 What do you consider a living wage? And, what plan to you have for tariffs? Something like SmootHawley? Protectionist tariffs will lead to another great depression, but that's probably what you want so we can usher in bigger government... And if you pay people not to work, they won't work. That's according to studied by Obama's for chief econ adviser (Summers). Besides, welfare keeps people down. If welfare worked, it would no longer exist.

I would be in favor of the wealthy paying less in taxes if they would bring jobs back to America and pay their workers a living wage and benefits. Let's reward them that way.
-
@TiltedTalkDomagoy: Yeah. Keep drinking your fox channel koolaid. These corporate heads make TENS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. Think they couldn't spare a few million to pay their workers a living wage? Damn right they could. The govt need to reimpose tariffs. In case you haven't heard a lot of people can't find a job right now, meaning welfare is all they have. Where have you been living, a cave?

@judyleasugar97 Jobs are sent overseas because our govt makes it too expensive to do business here. Just because someone makes more $ than me doesn't mean they should pay a larger % of their income to the govt. That's called theft (& Marxism & Socialism), not some "obligation" that politicians dream up. We have a system where most people don't pay a penny into it so they aren't vested & don't care what happens. Welfare keeps people poor - I don't know how that makes life better for them.
-
@TiltedTalkDomagoy: The government doesn't steal from people. Making rich people do what they should be doing in the first place is NOT stealing.
-
@TiltedTalkDomagoy: I don't envy the super wealthy. No, you're advocating for the wealthy shirking their obligations. I would be okay with the wealthy paying less taxes if they would at least pay their workers a living wage. Stop sending jobs overseas. Because they don't the govt is left to try to make life better for the poor.
Strong woman or not, Pelosi is a Marxist and Maddow should make more of an effort to hide the fact of how in love she is with Pelosi's Marxist ideas. Next time Maddow should conduct the interview with pom-poms and ask her questions in the form of a cheer

@TiltedTalkDomagoy, what kind of mindless drone are you? Nancy, Rachel aren't Marxists. Unlike you, [I'm a trained psychologist], they are Human. They feel a Unity with their fellow man. They choose to vote for a country that acts in some measure of solidarity with them. This is constitutional, democratic, Human. The constitution, the founding fathers set no boundaries against these values - THEY ASSUMED THEM. The heartless creatures of the GOP are unimaginable to our founders. Subhuman.
