@POTUS Doesn’t America have to actually manufacture something before declaring itself the manufacturing hub of the world?

Where is it written that we can’t be the manufacturing hub of the world? Well, America is now.

@SenSanders In order to “lead the world” the US will have to cut the line. So far behind some European countries.

Oregon is burning. California is burning. Siberia is burning. People are drowning in New York City. Detroit is flooding. There is drought all over the world. This is a climate crisis. The United States must lead the world in transforming our energy system away from fossil fuel.

@ulfstadj @paulkrugman We already pay Scandinavian-taxes. We just don’t realize it because it goes out in so many separate buckets. We pay Federal, state and local taxes. Then there is health insurance premiums. I would argue that whehealth insurance is mandated the premium is the same as a tax.

@paulkrugman I see, you want a Scandinavian-like society but are you willing to pay scandinavian- like taxes?

The American left asks why we can't be like Denmark, with universal health care, low child poverty, and high life satisfaction. The American right asks why we can't have a murderously repressive regime like Putin's Russia, or now Myanmar. OK.

Michael Flynn says the US should have the same kind of coup d'etat that Myanmar had. Remember: Myanmar's military is overturning elections, shooting protesters, torturing students, destroying the economy -- and it's fresh off a genocide of the Rohingya.

@NWeinerdog @RBReich Sorry but FMLA has never been paid leave. It’s nothing more than a right to take unpaid leave under certain circumstances. Not everyone is eligible.

Happy New Year & new decade everyone! It can only get better! This is Year we dump Trump & send a true advocate to the White House with a mass movement behind him/her. We’ll win the Senate flipping just 3 seats. Kindness will reign. Men will listen instead of fake listen. Pie!

@Scotcarp @Vote_CNP @RBReich You see on Faux News the other day they referenced 'the two dictators' when talking of Trump and Un? I don't think that was a slip, that was FN testing the waters for the GOP. How would that title be received. Trump's followers will gladly give up their freedom to keep a Dem out.

@RBReich #US2018 The #US is a corporate controlled Oligarchy. Trump is merely the largest tumor of a much deeper cancer. Expect the crisis to continue. Trump wants chaos and poverty in the US so he can become dictator of a white nationalist police state. So far it's working. #FreeTheBear

@Happi_Research @alexstubb @HappinessRpt I don't buy that. I might not be a typical Finn, because imo the Finnish weather, taxation suck big time. You have pay huge amount of taxes for everything and still nothing is enough, ever.

@NYTimesCohen You don't have to go to Kentucky. That same desperation exists in Boston where I live and in So Cal where my family is. Is it invisible?
