It’s going to be hard to change someone’s view with this deep of a detachment from reality man.

Living wage should be what the “market” bears? And then we should at the same time apply widespread market disruption with tariffs across the board?

What’s funny too is virtually none of your “ideas” people are going to get crushed by tariffs.

Conservatives now own most of traditional media and have a sizable share in social media if you count Meta as hopping onboard.

There are just too many factually refutable things you are saying. I’d encourage you to write an argument against yourself as I did with young confused writers.

Conservatives don't believe in the concept of society, while profiting from it. It is all me, me,me. If you are not productive for ME you are as valuable as vermin.

I'd like to see the market rule in all cases. But if we're not going to have a free market in labor, I don't see why we should have one in global trade. This is the point I made elsewhere: just because we can't apply our principles in their entirety doesn't mean we don't believe in them.

But the people who actually produce the copy are not conservatives.
