Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 That's about how long this crackpot scheme would last! Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is set to unveil a plan that would give American workers who want or need jobs guaranteed government jobs that pay at least $15 per hour and have health benefits. The progressive Vermont senator’s guaranteed jobs plan would entitle any American a job or job training in U.S.-funded projects in infrastructure, the environment, caregiving, and education, but he did not provide a cost-estimate or plan to fund the proposal, the Washington Post reported. “It would be extremely expensive, and I wonder if this is the best, most targeted use of the amount of money it would cost,” said Ernie Tedeschi, an economist who worked for the Treasury during the Obama administration. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/04/24/sen-bernie-sanders-unveil-plan-give-every-american-guaranteed-government-job/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right.....so why is Bernie's idea so bad and "out there" yet the military does essentially the same thing on a much grander scale with nefarious intentions and results Bernie is a big thinker that challenges the status quo. Whats so bad about giving someone a job and getting them off the dole. I see you in here railing against all this spending yet I never see a fucking peep out of you about the worst offender in welfare which is the US military by many multiples Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope....giving someone a job and paying them 15$ an hour is countless times better than teaching someone to kill and then employing them to do so without cause If you disagree with that you are a fucking moron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen you bitch about big government and now you're acquiescing? OK, sure its slightly less stupid then spending ass-loads on wars but, in this case, slightly less stupid is still monumentally stupid. This is idiotic! There are only so many jobs to be done by government, increasing it's size for no reason other than to provide jobs is fucking asinine. That money would be better "spent" by giving it back to the people who earned it, the middle class. The money "borrowed/spent" to fund the military would be better used by not being borrowed/spent in the first place. WTF, dude?

If you're not a career soldier/officer, you get minimal dick. Hence the outrage over homeless and under insured veterans. If you vet yourself for the full 20 and make a career out of it, you get just above dick. The reason I don't pipe up to bash the military is, as I've stated, I have many many family and friends in the services. Although I disagree with the person's playing the moves, I stand behind my pawns, rooks, bishops and knights. As far as giving out more government cush jobs, being regulated and manipulated by the man, further separating government and state, I figured you might have a problem with that. Imagine the entire census reporting to the government regime. Talk about bootlicking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to have more accountability from all parts of government, especially the military. On the other hand, I've read plenty about how our readiness has deteriorated over the past 10 years. Find reconciliation with that and maybe that issue gets solved. Besides, I thought this was about Bernies fucking hare brained scheme, cuz thats what it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
