PhantomJB Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Op-Ed from Peggy Noonan in the WSJ...can't share subscription link but these are some key takeaways on the Democratic debates and general approach: America's elites in politics, media and the academy have grown oblivious to "the average Joe's intense disgust" at being morally instructed and "preached to." "Every day, Americans are told of the endless ways they are falling short. If we don't show the 'proper' level of understanding according to a talking head, then we are surely racist. If we don't embrace every sanitized PC talking point, then we must be heartless. If we have the audacity to speak our mind, then we are most definitely a bigot." These accusations are relentless. It's surely not about the man at this point. It stopped being about Trump long ago. It is about that counter-punch that has been missing from our culture for far too long." It was as if they were saying, "Hi, middle-American people who used to be Democrats and voted for Trump, we intend to alienate you again. Go vote for that jerk, we don't care." Another problem: America has a painful distance between rich and poor, but it is hard to pound the "1%" hammer effectively in a nation enjoying functional full employment. Our prosperity is provisional and could leave tomorrow, but right now America's feeling stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serious question for you: do you understand that Yang’s idea of the Basic Income Guarantee is nothing new and has been promoted by many conservative economists, including Milton Friedman? It’s also not meant to represent a free handout but a reallocation of existing government expenditure. I think we’re going to have to do it at some point in the future. Yang is ahead of his time but the fact is that in the next few decades we’re going to lose 30% of our jobs to automation, and they’re not coming back. That’s not far into the future; it’s starting right now. Amazon has a new convenience store called Amazon Go: 2 locations are open already. There is no cashier, nobody works in the store during the day. You buy your items by pointing your phone at them and walking out. Bezos is planning 3,000 of these stores to open by 2021- more than existing 7-11s (which it will kill). It’s happening now. I'd be all for this if we truly would get the offset of existing government expenditures. I have zero faith that we will and that people can/will manage these funds and not need another safety net entitlement to save them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not at all a win for Trump. I think his line of thinking is Trump's best chance of re-election is for the Democrats to go hard left, thereby forcing those in the middle to choose between him and rhetoric or past personal actions they may not like, and what many will perceive as a socialist candidate. Everyone on that stage short of Biden, Bennett, Delaney, Hickenlooper can easily be painted into the extreme left/socialist prism. Let's face it, Barack Obama's insurance initiative is far to the right of these candidates. Never did he discuss covering illegal immigrants, much less in some cases like Sanders and Harris propose outright banning private insurance. Harris has since tried to backtrack a bit. But the swing to the far left is clear. I believe Joe's thoughts were that this is Trump's best path to winning those upper midwestern states again.
