Yes - screaming someone down with economically illiterate clichés really did show what unions are all about.

@loadapish "Do you have any answer to how can we improve salaries of working class people?" End mass immigration. It's never what anyone wants to hear - but if you have an infinite supply of immigrant labour, wages are going to be stagnant, and cost of living will keep rising. Simple supply and demand. You could also start looking into "Sell it here, make it here" tariffs, ending money printing, returning interest rates to historic averages, cutting red-tape, cutting the size of the public sector, an end to military adventures overseas and a flat tax: but start with limiting immigration.

No you dolt: - Inflation comes from printing money, a policy you supported. - Stagnant wages come from open borders, a policy you supported. As always with unions: all you get is dogma, slogans and Marxist ideology.

@loadapish What specifically do you wish to know?

@loadapish "what does economically illiterate cliches mean?" Saying things like "This country needs to be run for the people in it". Wittering about company profits without any context or understanding. Ascribing profits to "profiteering". Refusing to address the inevitable consequences of his own policies. Total ignorance of the causes of inflation. Ascribing to inflation to "profits" etc etc. Absolute witless gibbering that would get you an "F" grade in even a GCSE-level economics test.
