Its the gig economy, man. Those were just temps, anyway.

Its the gig economy, man. Those were just temps, anyway.

We knew this was going to happen.

They did too, but they didn't care. They were getting a tax cut, they were going to stop Obamacare, they were going
to torpedo the whole global warming thing, they were going to put their people in the Supreme Court, and they were going
to make sure the undocumented work force would remain in place but in constant fear of deportation so they would remain docile and terrified.

The next step would be the elimination of entitlements, welfare and public assistance. The nation's natural resources and
public lands would be on sale to private industry for 10 cents on the dollar. Regulations that protect the environment, the consumer, the accused and the worker would be phased out. And the medieval superstitions of their trailer trash allies concerning race, religion, sex, abortion and homophobia would be promoted. And his friends would get to keep their guns. Meanwhile, voter suppression and redistricting would ensure we could never go back no matter how much and how many young, educated and brown working people outnumbered them.

OF COURSE they knew this was all going to happen. That was the plan from the start. They just didn't care.
