No one in this country is a slave. If you think you are, you are 100% wrong and need to get your life and mind straightened up. The government can't and won't do this for you. No matter what, weak individuals will be preyed upon if they refuse to learn how to stand up for themselves. And with democrats in charge, the only thing that happens is the strong are held down by the weaklings. That is not what America is about.
As far as doing things on "the group level", that what communism is about, and that will never work in America, so don't even think about it. This nation is all about building people up to be strong individuals, capable of caring for themselves and their nation.
So this nation is about letting the strong stomp on the weak? And how does that work out in the end?
Trump just shafted working Americans with a new overtime rule that is substantially less generous than the one that Obama had in place. MAGA (for the rich).
Thanks. I just found it in yesterday's paper. 35K! I was making that back in the eighties.

The strong serve as the defenders, producers, life savers, and other critical roles in our nation. They aren't stomping on anyone. They are making your modern life comfortable, convenient, efficient and worth living.
People who are dubbed management, administrative, and professional can be required to work unpaid overtime who make more than 23,660 a year. A flaw in the Fair Labor Standards Act is that it never considered inflation when establishing who might be eligible for overtime.
Unpaid overtime is a scam. People work unpaid overtime because they are afraid that they will lose their jobs.
The Democrats should pass this so that they can show everyone who owns the republican party.
You're forgetting a key factor....Democrats Hate Hate hate the Middle class.

You live in Michigan. In Flint it looks like the strong are trying to weed out the weak by switching their water source to one that is polluted.

When people ACCEPT "salaried" jobs they ACCEPT NOT getting overtime.
Don't want it DON'T TAKE THE JOB. It is THAT SIMPLE!
Quit trying to make EVERYTHING socialism!
Heck, start your OWN company and do what you want!
It is EASY to sit on the sidelines a criticize others when you have NO SKIN IN THE GAME!
You have nobody to blame but yourself if you agree to work overtime unpaid. I couldn't imagine willingly working for someone who would make such an absurd demand. Stand up for yourselves people!
" I couldn't imagine willingly working for someone who would make such an absurd demand."
I GLADLY accepted that type of job because I got OTHER PERCS .
If you have NEVER experienced it, you should NOT condemn something you know nothing about!
