Wage issue against their own party and the leadership hates that. she is hotdogging nancy pelosi. a lot of people in leadership are things slow down a little bit. lets be honest. this reminds me of a rookie. great college career, now they got drafted, they entered the league and giving the opposing teams a lot of bulletin board material. a lot of the vets on the team dont really like her all that much, getting called for a lot of personal flow cracks -- personal fouls shes in page six a lot. she...

To a wage issue. wages have stagnated for 30 years. the cost of everything, including health care, goes up, but our paychecks dont get bigger. this is whats causing economic anxiety. we have a president who speaks very violently and then seems surprised when people react violently. i think a lot about harry truman and his sign on his desk that says the buck stops here. we have a president that will not take responsibility for any of his negative actions. thats unacceptable. im running against an...

Had. in part, i think were starting to see theres much more slack in the labor market than weve had in the past. and were starting to see the economy maybe not being what we always thought it was and whether its because of globalization or automation, the economy is just different at this point. but i will say more broadly to your point, the fact that the presidents approval ratings are mired in the lower 40s shows that the economy does matter. but people want a president whose values reflect th...

Maybe cold medication, right? and well sell cold medication and weve got to build a factory to make the cold medication. wed look around the country, try to find a spot where there are a lot of available workers and locate our factory there. when we do that, there will be a lot of people there that will get a job. >> why would a company do that? its still going to be cheaper in china or other places like that. youve not solving the wage issue. youre actually saying theyre going to pay them even ...

The right, economists on both sides of the aisle agree the corporate tax is a burden shared by the employees of the company and the consumers of those products. >> senator cantwell? >> thank you for that question. you have hit on the centerpiece of what this discussion should be about tonight. just like repeal health care, reform tax cuts, its like a moniker that they want to put up, but the substance is wrong. and that is on the point you just made. most people will tell you that this money, 75...
