Bag om President Trump....Stop....The Market Cannot Create Enough Jobs....Stop
By the time this is published it will be President, rather than President-Elect Trump-but since our antiquated Electoral College tipped the election to Trump, he has been holding up the canad that if we just fix our trade agreements with other countries, we can fix our unemployment [hereafter UE] crisis...For instance, Trump held up 700 jobs at Carrier AC, and 800 jobs at Ford, etc., as evidence of his ability to arm twist corporations to stay in America-including the threat of hefty fines after his inauguration-and he has a few takers, mostly Trump voters-who actually believe that this is solution-driven.....but when we need to create almost 200,000 jobs a month in America-just to keep up with our birthrate--it doesn't take an Einstein to figure out that tearing up trade agreements is not even any where near a solution -i.e., it is patently absurd! The flaw in the anti-trade thinking is the most pernicious belief in America, today--that "The market can provide anybody wanting a job, with a job"-it is PURE BS-and with this propaganda/fraud driving our job creation since WW II-we have not had a UE rate below 3% since 1953! Leaving millions jobless in its wake, it has turned our inner-cities into war zones, with 60% minority UE, drug economies, and an epidemic of gun violence! Further, when we believe the market can provide everybody with a job, it starts sounding reasonable to let the planet burn to the ground, so we can protect the bottom line-every climate-change denier believes this-and specifically because they have been taken in by this fraudulent belief!
