Even with unemployment low, wage inequality is the greatest of all in America, 433 of top 500 companies that got tax windfalls DID NOT share, no trickle down. They bought more of their stock and gave raises to CEO's, not workers. 43% of Americans in poverty, mostly working poor.

US Poverty rate is 12-14% not 43% & i agree wage inequality is decreasing but still needs WORK! A better deal is out there for Americans who have the drive, work ethic and determination. Everything is earned - not given

deregulations of worker protections and consumer protections and our planet's protections, and insurance/drug prices are rising!

Insurance was starting to level off until trump started jacking with it. Just his talk of repealing Obamacare caused prices to rise a bit, then more as he threatened to defund Medicaid each month, and more yet when he dropped the mandate. Left alone, ACA was NOT in a death spiral
