Unemployment is at 4.5%. Furthermore, why is everyone on the left ignoring the plight of their most loyal voting block, African Americans? They keep trying to pander the the white working class, when there's many more black/Hispanic working folks.

Why doesn't Chris Hayes do a townhall in large black cities?
 
People in coal country lose jobs and drug use in their communities skyrocket. The response? We need to help these people. Get them treatment. It's not their fault. It's their economic situation.

People in the inner city can't get jobs and drug use in their communities skyrocket. What's the response? Well, it's their culture. They need tougher law enforcement. Those people did it to themselves. Why should my tax dollars go to helping a bunch drug addicts?

Can you guess what the difference is between these two groups of Americans?

Fuck 'em until my people get the same compassion.

People REALLY don’t like Hillary Clinton. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down.

"President Trump has had a trying first six weeks as president. But at least Americans don't seem to have buyer's remorse.

As Hillary Clinton makes her reemergence with a speech at the Kennedy Center in Washington on Wednesday night, a new poll shows her with her worst image numbers ever. The Suffolk University pollshows that just 35 percent of registered voters have a favorable opinion of Clinton, compared with 55 percent who have an unfavorable one.

The same poll, meanwhile, shows Trump — for the first time ever — in significantly better shape than Clinton: 45 percent favorable and 47 percent unfavorable.

Even as Trump beat Clinton in the 2016 election, his image numbers were often worse than hers, and he, of course, wound up losing the popular vote, 48 percent to 46 percent.

A couple of polls toward the end of the 2016 race showed Clinton in territory similar to where she is in the new poll, but Suffolk's own polling at the time showed her in relatively good shape: 46 percent favorable vs. 47 percent unfavorable. This is also the first public poll testing views of her since December — when her loss was fresher in people's minds and Trump hadn't yet assumed the presidency. And, if anything, Clinton's poll numbers have gotten worse over that span.”*

They should compare Trump's favorable rating to other first term POTUSes at the same time in their respective administrations.

I don't know why people keep trying to put HRC in the middle of Trumpalalooza.

Wait until Trump and the GOP dismantle the ACA, then let's see how people feel about Trump.

Lol not sure why it came up...maybe you watch a lot of videos beyond the Liberal echo-chamber?

That POV she outlines has been circulating for a few years and l believe has even been discussed here - well, the concept that "WW get paid greeeeeaaaat (but Black men don't.)" Whatever.

It makes sense that women invariably choose professions that pay less because we are sublimally discouraged from pursuing math and science interests in school, which we know are the highest paying jobs out of school.
Throw in the part-time dynamic as well as child-bearing priorities, and the iincome inequities pile up.

Obama paid his female employees less than his males...but again it turns out that the women he hired occupied the lowest paying positions while the men occupied ones that paid more. That's where the true inequities lie, IMO. The pay issue is a symptomatic of that.

What about you?

Exactly. A 4-4 split means that the lower court's ruling stays in place.

This week was the 1st time I ever listened to Conservative argument that the female wage gap is a myth. They made some great arguments, that folks do overlook. For example, I've noticed the stereotypical feminist/SJW you see online is usually college-educated, but they usually have some worthless degree in something like "Gender Studies".

Dyed-in-the-wool Repubs? Perhaps. And understandably so - status-quo rockers are always challenged.
