Loose lips sink ships.

I'm talking about the members of the board.
Was that really hard to understand?

It's my subtle way of asking if it's the industry standard for role reversal in businesses.

A burger flipper in a $50,000 a month position or an executive down in the corporate cafeteria flipping burgers?

It's my subtle way of asking

Unless your subtlety is still escaping me, yes of course it is.

Trump is(supposedly) in the construction business.
How much drywalling and plumbing do you think he's done?

How much do think he's even capable of?

Companies hire top executives that have nothing to do with experience in production of the product all the time. It's nonsensical to question that.

I think it's about time we do start questioning that.

 

[columbus]

that.

is extremely vague, in the context.
Are you suggesting that the rights of private citizens and corporations to do business as they see fit should be questioned?

You pinko commie!

[Heyo]

Well politics do make strange bedfellows.

Enemy of my enemy and such. Only that the corporatists in the DNC have a good reason to fear Bernie; he's a real threat to their life style, their corruption and possibly their jobs. For Trump and the trumpists it is absolutely stupid to attack Biden before the convention. Helping to build up your most feared opponent is shooting yourself in the foot.

They do if they want to be held to fair taxes. It's time the middle class got some of the benefit of the economy and not just the crooked capitalists.
I notice you're defending corporations over the middle class. That's what RW media does.

I don't know how you come to that conclusion. Please explain.

 

[tytlyf]

Democrats aren't in the business of corporate policies over the middle class. For you to think Sanders and Warren will infuriate extremely wealthy people is your opinion. Most wealthy Democrats are the ones saying they don't mind paying more in taxes. Now, if you want to talk about Republican elitists, that's a different story.

I think that they are, although to a lesser degree than Republicans.
Clinton did sign NAFTA. It was such a big long term blow to the lower middle class that Republicans didn't even own up to writing and negotiating it. They only wanted to talk about who signed it.
Then there's the ACA. Republican designed healthcare "reform" that was much better for the corporations than the rest of us. Obama's push to pass it was a bipartisan effort, for which he took a lot of criticism from the rest of us. He had solid support on Capitol Hill and might have instituted more comprehensive reform if he wasn't such a weak kneed bipartisan.
Sorry, the Democrats aren't much different from the Republicans, except for the lies they tell before getting elected.

It takes some extreme mental gymnastics to bend progressive ideas so that they appear corporatist to you.

I think that they are.

The ACA was much better for corporations than us little people. That was the Democrats signature legislation.
Republican healthcare reform, with a solid democratic majority on Capitol Hill, was the best that the Democrats could manage.

Sorry dude, I don't think Democrats are all that different from Republicans.
