AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Are these members of the house living in Reality. Give small business tax credits to set up expensive 401k’s for employee & employer savings accounts for retirement. Where will the extra money to save be found? Are they increasing the Minimum Wage to $15/hr Nationally? Are they changing the NLRB making Unionization easier for Labor? Are they enforcing anti trust, encouraging entrepreneurs to become more competitive , giving entrepreneurs a greater piece of the Corporate pie? Give more money to the Lower and Middle Classy and they’ll happily save! I know, at Ford, Pfizer, Banker Trust , I set 6% of my salary aside for saving and it was matched by the Corporation. As a small but owner, I was told not to take on the Responsibility of a pension fund & paid my Labor high salaries, gave them healthcare and paid leave instead. One day I hoped to share my business with them, but the Recession of 2008 blocked those plans. Many employees of entrepreneurs have not recovered financially. For The Families Act is still required and supported by 70% of the People.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Politicians have feasted off of Corporate Profits and largess. They’ve encouraged profits over people, rewarded Big Corporations with the Trump Tax Cuts, encouraging minimal taxation of the Wealthy and now they’re surprised by Corporate Greed. Industry is out of control. The Corporate Manyra is greed. Rein in all Corporations by taxation & individual taxation, enforce anti trust Laws in every institution and we’ll get a return to ethics in the marketplace. There is no honor among thieves . It’s not just the shippers at fault, Corporate Greed has run amok and we’re all paying for ,it with Inflated pricing.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Shock!? American Healthcare has attracted private equity positions. Financialization of healthcare, is similar to equity positions in every major industry. It’s called “Late Stage Capitalism “, monopolies in every industry, control the Peoples way of life, while private equity and insurance companies become wealthier. There are 800 Billionaires in America. More can be done by Government to make Healyhcare affordable. Don’t look toward TRUMPSGOP for help. They would dismantle the ACA and continue privatization of Healthcare. Leave Healthcare to Government and disallow private profit centers in Healthcare. We don’t need house sitters, we need preventive Medicine and affordable GP’s.
