A huge chunk of rural Pennsylvania is fracking jobs, and winning Pennsylvania involves making sure people stay employed.
Stupid motherfuckers want her to pull a Clinton and tell an entire section of the Pennsylvania working class, “tough titty go back to school” just before an election.
Or give them other job opportunities like in the renewable energy sector? They only want fracking because oil companies exploit those small towns to make them entirely dependent on the oil companies for employment
Literally what Clinton said she was going to do. Do it AFTER the election. This is to fucking important because if he wins it’s game over on our democracy.
No, she didn’t. She didn’t promise people from Pennsylvania anything to help their situation. She didn’t promise to bring jobs to those towns dependent on oil companies by shifting subsidizing to renewable energy companies in those towns. She needed to convince them that her policies would help improve their access to jobs and improve local development.
I’m not saying Harris needs to ban fracking, I’m saying it’s a much more effective message to promote more opportunities for those towns by improving the subsidizing of renewable energy companies, public and/or private. Their main concern is jobs, which can easily be addressed.
In that respect, yeah. Not when it comes to capitulating to right wing framing on immigration and having more hawkish rhetoric on foreign policy. People want progressive policies that will improve their lives, she needs more of that
I am voting Harris. This isn’t about me, people want more. Anti-genocide is a line for many.
Are you anti-immigration too? Immigrants aren’t responsible for any crime wave, they’re responsible for less crime per capita than US citizens. Neither are they responsible for bringing drugs like fentanyl over the border, that’s done overwhelmingly by US citizens. Those are the points she’s conceited to right wing framing on, both completely made up and not backed up by any evidence. The crisis at the border is our two-tier immigration system, our inhumane treatment of immigrants such as separating families, and rejecting of those seeking asylum
Not at all, but you can address the reasons so many people want to leave their country so quickly. I’d say a vast majority don’t want to leave their countries at all, and most have their hand forced because of economic issues. Sure, there are many who rightfully leave because of the oppressive governments, but if we can use the influence of America to create economic opportunities to create jobs for them and make it so they dont have to undertake such a dangerous journey, we should do it.
Our foreign policy in the Americas is one if not the major reason for the increase in immigration. I agree, we should stop America’s influence of Embargos and Regime Changes that have led to these kinds of conditions. I think we’re in agreement there. Ending US influence would certainly help reduce the crisis, but we should also accept them all as legal immigrants that have a path for citizenship. We are a nation of immigrants after all.
My point is that the Democrats capitulating to the right wing narrative, which is completely made up, is bad politics and bad policy. The Pro-immigration stance Democratics have had for decades was very popular too. Sentiment has only changed once Democrats stopped providing a counter-narrative and instead ran with the right wing framing.
I don’t know why or how this keeps coming up. All musicians who want or don’t want their music used by a politician or political party should be on a list. If the song is on the banned list and it’s used, instant fine.
It’s easy to just reach out to the artist and request permission. They have agents for that sort of thing, the campaigns have staff that can do that sort of thing. It’s gotta be better than making assumptions with your blanket license and then getting bad PR and lawsuits after the fact.
It’s a civil issue which means the aggrieved party needs to file a suit.
It’s obviously just easier and cheaper for trumps team to do it this way. There’s no back and forth asking for permission (that would be declined anyway). They just do it, then pay a few grand to settle later
Fair use is a (difficult) defense to being sued for infringing copyright. The copyright holder doesn’t get to say what is and isn’t fair use-- that’s a multifactor largely qualitative assessment preformed in the court room.
It’s another custom that’s bound people only by the fear of constant public shame and ridicule that trump has shambled through like a toddler through a spiderweb.
She’s learning from Hillary. You don’t tell people that you’ll end their jobs and then expect them to vote for you. More than a few states gave economies based on fossil fuels I’m not sure why people expected her to say she’s going to cut those off. We will expand green energy no matter what everything else is platitudes and pandering.
This is pretty close to one of Denver’s larger intersections, a cross between two major east - west and north - south routes. It’s had cycling groups of migrants for 6ish months but as far as I can tell it hasn’t been a static group. They mainly offer to wash windshields for cash but otherwise are no burden whatsoever on the neighborhood. The surrounding neighborhood is pretty wealthy as it’s close to Denver’s museums and largest parks. This sign is literally in front of a sprouts farmers market.
It’s unfortunate that we’re not doing more to get them more stable housing and employment but they in no way are causing problems. The only people upset about it are just upset about such a visceral confrontation of the inequality when they drive through these intersections. I’ve seen dudes in $100k Audis yelling at the dude just trying to get some money for food because he’s been legally barred from working for his first six months of being here.
Denver has a decent mutual aid network that is doing a lot to help, if you’re interested check out www.denvermutualaid.com
Every single major retailer with a deli section near me has switched to boar’s head within the last 2-3 years… guess they undercut everyone else on bids and got good contracts by violating health and safety laws, the American capitalist way!
Boeing and Boar’s head are killing people because of incompetence and cost cutting. Chiquita and Nestle go out in the jungle and massacre people at regular intervals just because those people don’t want to be slaves and having to pay workers hurts the bottom line.
It depends on the business. Highly competitive and volatile ones, like restaurants, can still be judged by longevity, in my opinion.
The only exception to this rule is the Chili’s on 45th Street and Lamar in Austin, Texas, which exists in a timeless negative space where businesses can not die. Will not die. They are watching.
I remember that! They were more a specialty brand that you’d find in more upscale grocery stores. Now they’re just boring, apparently disgusting, processed meat like every other brand.
Im glad the German deli and regional super market go through more local organizations. Im also glad we can maintain damned near every type of livestock as well.
Having managed a supermarket for about 6 years, I can tell you it’s because of the service, consistent quality and variety of choices. Their service model is similar to many of the larger bread vendors in that they sell via consignment. So you only buy what you open to sell, and they take back anything that expires or looks dodgy. Their sales reps maintain your inventory and place your orders, really saving you alot of time and reducing your risk.
O’Connor has become a “go-to” favorite for conservative lawyers, as he reliably rules against Democratic policies and for Republican policies.[1][2] Attorneys General in Texas appear to strategically file cases in O’Connor’s jurisdiction so that he will hear them.[3]
