Never said he hated the idea of a minimum wage, Dr Deflection.  By all means, show the quote of his, where he pushes for it.  And we can dispense with the abolishing of the welfare state, when we already have him supporting increased infrastructure spending.  Of course that's not the same, but neither is it me proclaiming how he would have wanted it abolished.  Just a convenient point no one has made to try and argue.  SOP.  Try something for a change...a point that is actually being made....such as the idea that we should all be treated equally, and that decisions & policy NOT be made based on the color of one's skin

Or....just keep focusing on what he meant to say.  Should at least make you feel better

There will always be people who are unemployable. As more and more menial jobs are done by machines and robots, the percentage of such jobs will multiply.  The solution is to train and retrain people to do jobs that are more mental and less manual.  This is what our President has said we should do.  And the Party of No only blathers on and on about "tax and spend", which is as stupid a comment now as it was when some fool invented it.

All any government of any political persuasion anywhere has ever done  is tax and spend. It is a definition of government.

Juniorbush was more into the "borrow and squander" on his unnecessary, useless and incompetently fought wars. But that was just a less wise form of tax and spend.

As that has prescious little to do with anything related to the topic of MLK, you really best not even try to compare debt to anything Bush, compared to our current master Deficit and Chief

I can and will dump on Juniorbush at each and every opportunity. He was a fucking disaster.  He left our current President with the biggest mess since  James Buchanan left office.  Do not tell me what I has best not do, you knucklewalking fascist moron.

No one said you couldn't spew your normal garbage.  Just demonstrates how meritiless it is, when you use it to try and misdirect from the point of the thread, that YOU started, and have in the past given other people grief for daring to not stick to the point of the thread.  Whatever "disaster" you want to claim Bush behind, our current Disaster and Chief makes him look like George Washington

That is bullshit, but you lack the acumen to know it.
