As they used to say on the streets in the Soviet Union, "with capitalism man oppresses man; with socialism it's just the opposite."

I read this yesterday and just shook my head, she also made anti israel statements that had the jewish community up in arms.

The traditional democrats are scared to death of her and they should be

I heard a clip of her comments. The girl is a dimwit, and speaks like a 14 year old.

She is the future of the Democrat party. How do I know that? It's leader said so. It's going to sell real well in the real parts of this country. There are still plenty of people that believe that you earn your way and not depend on your neighbor.

She obviously made that up, likely on the spot. Easily debunked.

The latest employment numbers are from the June jobs report. They show that only 4.8 percent of employed Americans hold multiple jobs. That’s lower than before the Great Recession and lower than during the 1990s boom. Indeed, that number has been declining for years.

That gives pause. It directly reflects the mindset of her constituents and what I consider a dangerous undercurrent in American politcs.

She has a point. I would not have put it that way. But our citizens are grossly under employed.

Actually no, she doesn't have a point. She's dead wrong, statistics don't lie. She made it up.

Well at least she has that in common with Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Al Green and Louis "Lewie, Lewie he gotta go now" Gutierrez.

People with two jobs is half what it was two years ago. Happy future, Liberals!

She represents the ideas of at least half of the millennials. At some point her views will dominate.

Many people are underemployed. It's always been that way and it always will. Still, it's absolutely stupid to claim unemployment is at historic lows because everyone has two jobs. I'm trying to think if I know anyone who has two jobs. I can't think of anyone.

Isn't the unemployment rate based on applications for unemployment payments? How does having two jobs affect the numbers of those persons walking into an unemployment office and filling out the forms because they are not working? If the have one job they are working and not filing for unemployment.

Perhaps I am missing something here.

To repair this would require a wall of separation between the government and the education systems.

Brilliant. Our political process has been a joke for decades upon decades, so it reaps what it sows.

It worked fine when I went to school. What is needed is a change in who teaches and the curriculum.
