It's like they know that one of our major problems is that capitalists have destroyed all our manufacturing and sent all of our production jobs overseas thus weakening our economy our society and our National Defense. Yet instead of doing anything about it they just do this thumb their nose bill that does nothing. Kind of like a fuck you to the entire country.
I'd really like to see who drafted this bill and a who the share holders in the company that will be making these flags are. My gut says they are the same people.
This was passed by bipartisan support and the person who would be getting paid would be an American with American workers and raw material suppliers who are american...
So yeah I guess the tax payers who are paying the bill are the same people here sooo... Win?
You know exactly what they meant. You still have some boot polish around the lips there.
Nope. I'm just pushing back against all this stupid pessimistic acting from a bill that literally is a good thing. Mostly because no one even read the article and just wants to feel miserable about everything. You may want the company but why not recognize even a small win.
Take your noose off and breath for a little bit.
They worked on this for years. Years. And they got about 10 jobs. When we say you're getting crumbs and you're happy for it, this is it. This is the literal picture in the dictionary for that idiom.
Well then it feels nice to be happy.
And it's not like I am saying it's done completely just taking a win.
Be pissy about it all you want. It doesn't bother me. Just you.
