I didnt ask you for that. I asked for your consideration and if you are going to post it post it where it belongs. IT really gets you off so put it where all the other stories are about getting off. Whats wrong with me asking for that. I DIDN'T SAY YOU CANT SAY IT. I asked as personal favor to me, if you could consider my feelings. If it were you asking me a personal favor not a broad spectrum hey can you like ****ing not statement, I'd at least say hey you know what OH I am sorry if I hurt your feelings with my opinions and they are mine to have, but you know what out of respect for you as a member I'll take it under advisement.
But don't worry. I know you won't this is futile.

Re: Abortion. Back in 1979 Linda and I drove into Boston so she could get one. We were both only 19, poor as hell with no insurance, and were polluting the hell out of bodies with all sorts of illegal chemicals so the decision, while really difficult, was somewhat a no brainer as to what was in the best interest of the fetus. And yes, I'm a liberal and I've stated my reasons why many times here and none of them have anything to do with what some of ya'll are spouting off on over the last few pages. Here's a few others. The environment. Safety in the workplace. Upkeep of our infrastructure.

William the Bloody, moar liek William Bloody Ignorant of Basic Macroeconomics, amirite? Just gotta point a few things out:
(1) No one cares if this is a "record number of immigrants" in the USA, because what's statistically relevant is immigrants as a percentage of the population. We are still several points lower than the peak in the 19th century. (2) "Unskilled" immigrants do not exert downward pressure on native born "unskilled" workers wages. The consensus among economists on the issue is so ****ing great it approaches "the gold standard is ****tarded" area. I mean, **** do you even marginal propensity to save? (3) "Bernie Sanders & Donald Trump agree on something, therefor it's true,".....is not a valid argument. Ever. Ever ever ever ever ever ever (4) Free Trade Agreements do not exert downward wages on working class wages (as a whole) and do not lead to declines in union membership.

Native born unskilled workers don't even want the jobs that immigrant unskilled workers are doing. They think they are above those type of jobs in general.

1. People lose their jobs as their jobs are moved abroad. 2. Unions' bargaining power is reduced, since companies are less likely to raise wages etc. when they can move jobs abroad instead. As for union membership, the membership rate has been steadily declining since the '80s, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, regardless of whether it's directly caused by free trade deals.
