Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumWhy i am supporting Bernie.....
I rarely, if ever, post something worthy of discussion.
I am one to truly sit on the sidelines and watch. Hell, most of my posts are typically smart ass remarks
I can't do that anymore, especially after seeing this:
For those of you who can't watch this, this is a video of Carrier employees in Indianapolis being told that their jobs are being shipped to Monterrey, Mexico. This is NAFTA at work. 1,800 good paying jobs gone, poof, just like that. A decision based on greater profits for the top.
This nonsense needs to stop. We need a president that is willing to stand up and fight this bullshit. That person in my opinion is Bernie Sanders. I just don't see this quality in Hillary Clinton.
(For you supporters of Hillary, this is not meant to insult you in any way, shape, or form. Her ideals on how this country should be ran just don't simply align with mine. If she's the winner after the primary's, fine, i'll vote for her. But until the dust settles, i am putting my support behind Bernie)

OP

(10,345 posts)1. all 3 of the careers on my resume
ended by layoff.
I'm a 27 yr old millennial.
That's the future I look forward to. Jobs that last only 2 years at a time maximum.
That's one of my reasons to vote Bernie.

(10,345 posts)5. I sell too. but only occasionally.
is it feasible to make a full income on eBay?
jillan
(39,451 posts)6. Some people do. I don't. I use it to supplement my income.
My goal is to make $500 profit a month. Some months I beat that, other months I'm happy to walk away with a couple hundred in profit.
