Fast Food argument. Nobody has the answer to the world's problems. Certainly no president. Raising the minimum wage may very well work well for those workers. Might eliminate some jobs, but if companies already have the technology to deal without them than so be it. It was bound to happen.

You want a detailed plan analysis from me.. but you don't trust the top economist's in the country?

Trump is advocating a policy of keeping the interest rates low.

Are these things she can do on her own? Or does she have to work with congress to make these proposals reality?

Close to full employment now. Boomers retiring faster then new applicants coming out of schools.. Biggest issue is hourly earning resetting (lower scale) for most openings. Increase in minimum wage best way or a new unionization for those entry level jobs in the service industries.

Exactly.

As I have said in other threads. Millenial spending growth is projected to grow by 1.4 trillion in the next 5 years. The shift is on the horizon.

She'll just start a war with Russia.

Everybody will be paid/employed carrying a free gun, to exercise their 2A rights, and have a free travel plan to see the world, probably starting in the middle east, and ending somewhere on the trail towards the Ural mountains.

But hey, there will be full employment for the able bodied.

Short of that she'll continue the destruction of the country from within like her treasonous predecessor.

As stated in the first post.

Quote:
He has misled voters in states like Ohio and Michigan by asserting that the renegotiation of NAFTA or the imposition of tariffs on China would substantially increase employment in manufacturing. In fact, manufacturing’s share of employment has been declining since the 1970s and is mostly related to automation, not trade.
In reality, it isn't trade deals that did away with manufacturing jobs.

Sure she will.

Once she has us totally involved with useless war there will be plenty of jobs building coffins and digging graves.

You do realize that the democrat's aren't the ones who start wars? Especially how far to the left the party has moved.
