    When you hear, “we can’t afford paid sick leave, a $15 min. wage, free public college, universal health care,” just look at who is saying it.https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/20/business/oxfam-billionaires-davos/index.html …

        Free public college? So who pays for it? Taxes? Nothing is FREE! Earn it!

        Public college was free in the US until the Nixon presidency.

        Rather than inspire others to compete to attain great success you try to criminalize and disparage it. You don’t have to be intelligent, innovative, or aggressively pursue your dreams. Vote for Democrats and we’ll write laws to take it for you. Brilliant.

        Or just make it a more level playing field. So more can become successful. And always keep in mind that demand creates the economy and trickle up economics always works. Take from the rich and they just get it back.

        You keep saying this word, “free.” Would you care to explain how that works? Please provide details about how you plan to pay nothing for it?

        Amzn pays $15/hr min now, Gates/Buffet are massive philanthropists, and Zuck (although eww) supports UBI, so that quote seems misattributed. How about we actually enact gov't policies that sufficiently protect workers instead of expecting companies to voluntarily pay more.

        Also, the Koch's are a joint 5th on that Richie Rich list. They seem to have taken it on as a personal challenge to destroy the fabric of American society so maybe we say a few choice words about them instead of the billionaires who might/do actually donate to causes we like?
