Overton window - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

When does the Overton Window become a mirror? I think the answer to that is an enigma wrapped in a mystery. Or so it seems.

I know how Rome fell. It tried to be too many things to too many people and divided itself by multiplication. We know a house divided cannot stand. That is as plain as you can get. So, the question one should be asking oneself today is why our government has launched a mission to divide the people.

I worked blue collar jobs for fifty years and got a couple of pensions that most people today will never see. I didn’t sock a lot of money away so I could travel abroad and get on cruise ships pretending to be a world citizen. I know what I am and who I am. I have learned what bull is and can smell it coming. I can spot a brownnoser a mile away and believe me, I have worked with many brownnosers.

What happened to those pensions average people used to get? Have you noticed that people in the public sector get great pensions paid for by your tax money? Why did they take your pensions and affordable health insurance away? Why did the people in charge decide it was better for you to have a handicap parking sticker and an electric shopping cart instead of a dignified existence?

I see people bagging groceries today that are older than I am, and I am not a youngster. All the lifeboats on the US Titanic are full of the crew that sailed us into an iceberg. I can see that. I do not know why so many others cannot.

When leadership walks so far in front of the people that it loses sight of them then whatever you were once is gone. Is that planned? I think it might be. I look at what they are trying to pass off as leadership and smell bull again. They are trying to sell us manure and tell us it is a finished crop.

They just say if you don’t buy the bull you are dumb. The “experts” in government and media back them up. I guess it’s bread and circuses for all! I am not falling for it.

I’m voting for Trump again.

As with Trump, his supporters always see everything as "someone else's fault".

Nope.. I acknowledge reality, it's easier that way.

Blame Corporate America and Republicans destroying the right to join a union

Unions used to defend working Americans assuring they get good pay and benefits

Why did we start purchasing foreign made products? The trade deals opened up other nations, especially China. If we are so pro union and other patriotic ways, we would not have purchased those products and Prog purchase a lot of them.

Why? Shareholder value.

There were options. there were people pushing when in stores to purchase American. We did not. Too lazy, indifference. The garment industry had unions. Nothing though compared to other unions. The Japanese were first on the plate. And East Asia has not looked back on building in quality, cost efficiency and speed of producing goods. To do the same here again, we must pay a little more. And the employees cannot hold the nation or companies' hostage either. To try to get manufacturing to return some things must be tried. And Joe did nothing. Although shill people said he was getting manufacturing to return. Which is another lie. Tariffs and tax advantages are two ways to get it done unless you have other options.
