    Wasn't it you who posted "Screw these Trmpers?" I'd say you may have antagonized people with a comment like that.

    Go back and look. I said "screw these Trumpers" in response toTrumpers on this thread that just couldn't bring themselves so say a simple THANK YOU to the folks that are keeping this country going.

    By the way...I haven't seen you do that as of yet

    Owning stores is great and very important. But the owners are not going to help us as much as stocking them and making the stuff available for us to buy. That means factory workers, people who build roads, people who build trucks, truck drivers, store employees, ... and so on.

    BTW, I didn't start it. The guy mentioned here did....

    You're so DESPERATE to sow division aren't you.

    You started a thread like this that was roundly ignored so you brought that garbage HERE of all places.

    Then you should just post your statement of “Can you people just stop” without including my quote pointing out the hypocrisy of your Dem lefty party thanking people they have been shooting at and calling “deplorables” since November 2016

    There would be nothing to stock if the person didn't own the store....he's making them available to buy, by buying the products, and providing a market to sell them. Geez.

    The factory owners, people that own the construction companies making the road, etc all are needed to provide the products and places these things are getting built are needed too.

    It's not one or the other...nto sure why you have to make this about division and class warfare.

    This isn't about rich versus poor.

    It's about the FACT that these relatively low paid folks are doing dangerous scary work .That they risk bringing this home to their loved one every day

    Let's just appreciate that fact...can we not?

    I don't understand your reaction. "Sow division"? Are you starting some sort of "Kumbaya" campaign with the right or something?

    Oh... I wish there were unity. I would love to read your reasoning as to why you believe that has become possible at this moment in history.

    Oh shut up. I am one of those people that are labeled as critical personnel. Just because I am not expressing my feelings to you on this forum does not mean I lack them.

    Of course store owners are important. That's how society works! I have said nothing to the contrary. Store owners, companies, government,... they are all facilitators. But the ground work is performed by low level workers.

    What nonsense! This has nothing to do with class warfare.

    I'm not saying it doesn't exist, I'm just saying this has nothing to do with it.

    Not exactly, since if only the rich class survived there would be nobody to fill the jobs. If the poor class survived they would band together, nominate a leader and then get on with the world.

    Because he...like you...wants to stir up crap.

    Both of you...just say thank you and walk away...even if you don't mean

    The most important thing YOU can do is walk away and stop this divisiveness...at least on this thread

    Reading helps too. I quoted you in response to another poster. That shouldn't have been hard top understand.

    And I'll decide how and to whom I want to phrase my posts ...thank you
