You guys never get tired of finding some other way, to avoid being for American workers.

See 1010- CNN proving our point. Not a single intellectual point can he make. Not one. Not ever. He and central are like the special needs cousins at the family reunion...always saying the same old tired and boring jokes - and then pretending like they were funny and original.

CNN, what those of us above triple digit IQs understand is that tariffs KILL jobs net and penalize all consumers period, end of discussion. You are the one killing millions of jobs in the hopes of saving a few hundred. But of course, you haven't the IQ to understand that, nor any intellectual curiosity whatsoever.

I am absolutely for the American worker. Let’s lower the cost of labor by eliminating redundant and wasteful regulations. Reforming the legal labor system here. Reducing payroll taxes and the pressure government places on payment, despite business cashflow constraints.

Here’s a true story: a woman who’d worked for a company for 28 years developed MS. She asked for an accommodation under federal law. The corporation didn’t make the accommodation and were in fact pretty unfair with her. They fired her. At the time of her firing her salary was $48 grand a year.

She took the ‘violation’ up with the EEOC. She laid claim to two additional years of pay. What did the company owe her? They were jerks for certain and made little effort to accommodate a person who up until the time of the manifestation of her disease had been a good worker. The EEOC found a violation of federal law and the arbitration granted her $2 million dollars, plus attorney’s fees. The feeling was that they really needed to be punished. Is that a fair settlement?

That’s 41 years of salary for her or for someone else. Who pays for that?

Note bene: CNN will never answer the question nor fault government.
