It appears the gop wants every person to be gainfully employed. I would like to ask

what about the gop politicians? The only thing much I can see they are working at is getting elected or re-elected. The pay is great, the bennies are greater and the number of days a year they are "on the job" is fewer than the number they are on vacation. Beyond that, they do work their jaws lying to everyone as often as they possibly can.

minimum wage or less and no healthcare. No retirement, and rent is sky high alongwith gas and food. That we would have to work several jobs until we drop dead.
