Well stated.

By the way, the problem with focusing on job creation is that true job creation is a side-effect of economic growth. (If you just wanted to create jobs, you could pay people to move piles of rocks around or engage in other useless activity; that could give you full employment, but the country would fall into poverty and depression.)

If we take Trump at face value and presume that he isn’t just trolling us, his big-government centralized-decision economic policies would be a big drag on the economy. He’s not a free-marketeer.

As for Bernie, he’s clearly a Marxist in that he analyzes everything through the prism of class conflict. We know where that always leads (it doesn’t matter whether he’s described as a democratic socialist, or a socialist democrat, or a communist, or just a one-note left-wing lightweight).

Guess DT’s supporters didn’t read your reply. I did and would like you to put this out there as a thread possibly under vanity or general? ALso, using your three points, please give your opinion on the strengths of the candidates within those three. If you have a thread already written and we have read it, share it again here! Thanks.
