I'm sure Biden will say how he helped increase min wages. Another fake win for the libs Don't compare California with the rest of the country. They are very much unique.

Are you saying that if they raise the min wage elsewhere that it won't result in layoffs? I'm a business owner and I can ensure you that it will. If you are forced to pay people X amount of money they you will just hire less of those people and make them work harder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of us think they're nuts too. Cali is their own unique thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also some of their crime reform, high taxes, talk of reparations. That's off the top of my head. Are you surprised? Most of us are center left.

I'd be very happy if it was reliably blue for Governor and President and still centrist. That's about where I am on the spectrum.

Things have shifted so much in the past 5-6 years that if you were truly a centrist then by now you would be considered alt right. -personal freedom -marry whoever you want -don't judge anyone by the color of their skin -no wars -anti establishment Me in 2008 = Center left Me today = looney tunes alt right white supremacist terrorist Nothing about my views changed, so what happened? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would vote for a shined up turd over your guy yeah. Blue no matter who until hes gone. Also, he wouldn't push Cali type bs on the country, no chance.

Because I don't trust the people in power and the non-stop corruption in Washington, which is how every American should feel. Every single politician is a multimilionaire while making a 150k per year salary. How are they not in jail? They work for us, not the other way around.

He will stop the illegal immigration and deport the criminals who snuck in, he will end all wars, he will put America first and fix the economy and crazy spending. And then in 4 years get someone who is not a nut job on either side 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illegals are a huge and very important part of our economy, and they make their own lives better, too. Why would you want these people treated like animals and run out of our country where they are making us stronger, more prosperous and diverse?

KDIGGZ Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 We also need to shut down CIA. That was a war time creation and it was never meant to exist during peace times. I'm against shadow government and non-elected officials having any power whatsoever. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
