Trump Dictatorship and All Things Politics

This forum feels much cleaner today!!! That’s a reason to celebrate!

For those folks who want “factory jobs” back, can I suggest that they go work construction right now? If you’re not willing to work construction then shut up about “bringing back duh factories.” It won’t be you or your kids working these hard manual labor jobs, it’ll be immigrants.

Nothing sounds more tone deaf and privileged to me right now that trumpers who spend 20 hours per day online talking about “bringing back the factories.”

The thing about “bringing back factories” is people think that means they’ll come with high paying jobs that don’t require a degree. Those jobs used to exist because of unions, you know, those things that have all but disappeared in this country.

The more hilarious part is it never left. The US is second in terms of overall value of manufactured output and is pretty high by any measurable metric. The simple fact is cheap products go where labor is cheapest. Trump sells folks on a notion that manufacturing clothes pins will pay people $70k when that dog don't hunt. Americans are by in large idiots, so whatever floats their boats.

Ah yes. I wondering where the workforce for all these factory jobs was coming from.
I thought of children doing the work. Of immigrants doing the work. But prisoners makes the most sense.
America has a huge prison population.

Oh its kids are doing it too. If you actually visit rural America, you’ll see how young they start working. Now even more so with continued disinvestment and grifting by the haves.

Some states, West Virginia for one, is trying to loosen child labor laws. They would put children in coal lines if they could, and have.
