The Democrats outsourced the working class to China in the 1990’s, and for my entire adult life, whenever they are in power, labor suffers and wealth inequality grows.

The Democrats might talk about Union issues, but in the end they promote the very policies that destroy the US middle class. Workers have a better chance of being heard by populist Republicans than Democrats that are more interested in giving men a civil right to all female private spaces, and destroying the supply chain (and with it jobs), than about factor workers or blue collar workers anywhere. Democrats wouldn’t have outsourced the middle class and shut down factories from coast to coast if they actually cared about union workers.

I'm the daughter of a WWII veteran and widow of a combat veteran and also a teacher with a liberal history. I was belittled by a young union colleague for suggesting we commemorate Veterans at a campus event . I felt very sad.
