Democrats’ Jobs Guarantee: Bernie Sanders Is Mainstream Now

National Review ^ | 04/27/2018 | Theodore Kupfer

[Old Teufel Hunden]

old soviet proverb

We pretend to work, they pretend to pay us....

[MNJohnnie]

Actually it is the last gasp of the dying 1960s Leftist who feverishly worshiped the Soviet Union. This isn’t a “new” idea it is the re-hashing of a very old failed idea.

[rarestia]

This is terrifying to me. The leftist control of the education system over the last 60 years is starting to bear fruit in the form of mindless 18 - 25 year old voters.

I’m telling you, I believe jobs are the reason Trump won.

This is a very important issue to Americans.

We as a country have watched as company after company, after company, after company, after company after company ... have closed operations in America, and moved to China.

This is a very important issue to a lot of Americans.

Trump is right. But the rest of the GOP seems like they are mostly of the opinion that exporting jobs is aok.

It is not aok. America needs to be for America once again.

Trump is. If the democrats unite in this (which they seem to be doing) this will be a very powerful message for them to run on, if the GOP doesn’t unite behind Trump.

Just saying.

[VanDeKoik]

““jobs guarantee” program.”

AKA: Slavery

Talk about dusting off the old Dem playbook.

[chief lee runamok]

Democrat party bankrupt. “Jobs for all” narrative is a cost free strategy guaranteed to attract attention

[Buckeye McFrog]

Actually it is the last gasp of the dying 1960s Leftist who feverishly worshiped the Soviet Union.

I respectfully disagree. For the first time this country has a sizeable constituency that actually WANTS these things. Far more people than were even part of the Hippie crowd in the 60's. Millenials and foreign imports primarily. The ones who raise a word of caution are largely us old fogies, and we lose ten a day to the obituary column.

Bad policy or not this is going to happen eventually.

[pabianice]

IOW, the Dems endorse submission to The Bell Curve: most of their aggrieved groups are too stupid to compete in the real world.

[kempster]

Does this mean we can all quit our jobs and work for the government? Bernie, what a great idea. We can all push paper from one desk to another all day and accomplish nothing that we can sell to anyone else.

[Tilted Irish Kilt]

rarestia :" The leftist control of the education system over the last 60 years

Quite true !
Any wonder why Ayers, the former "Underground Terrorist" got into the education industry,
and the organization of his labor are showing in the NEA,
and evident in the recent graduating classes of 'snowflakes'.

[dgbrown]

Conservatives should go along with this and tell people that they too could live like the inner city folk.

[headstamp 2]

[the senators propose to guarantee jobs mostly in the health-care, child-care, infrastructure, and environmental sectors.]

Like we need entitled morons in these sectors.

[MNJohnnie]

Right which is why the idea is being pushed by:

Bernard Sanders (born September 8, 1941)

[Beagle8U]

We’ll all work part-time selling pizza to each other. Life will be grand!

[GOPJ]

Bernie’s a socialist... or as the folks in Chicago call them - a communist.

[GoldenPup]

Democrats’ Jobs Guarantee: Bernie Sanders Is Mainstream Now

Old Bernie has been a main stream communist for years. Never had a real paying job in his life.

[Hugh the Scot]

Will any republican candidate have the essential stones to bring up the denocrat’s last guaranteed jobs program?

I seriously doubt it.

[sickoflibs]

Makes sense,
its a shame that after NY and CA’ young adults get done with their *free* college no one will hire them.

Cradle to Grave government dependence.

[Vendome]

So, their sales Schtick is a guaranteed income or job but, NOT, Opportunity?

Loser proposition...
