    Melania has natural beauty that radiates through while "that dude on the right" needs hours in a chair with professionals and Photoshop to make her look passable.

    But yet here you are trying to claim Melania has had plastic surgery when the "experts" are not even sure if she has ever been under the knife.

    employment is at the will of either party not for-cause.

    Labor should be able to collect unemployment compensation for Capitalism's natural rate of unemployment for simply being unemployed.

    socialism is about equality and equal protection of the law simply Because, Capitalism will never care.

    capitalists need inequality not socialists. socialists merely need to learn how to use capitalism for all of its capital worth in modern capital times.

    uh... has the argument devolved to "you're a racist Nazi!" yet?

    Actually this is the fact I use when President Trump is accused of being a racist Nazi, I tell them, "with unemployment being at it's lowest in 50 years, The President apparently isn't very good at being a racist Nazi"

    yes, i do; along with the whole and entire concept it applies to.

    why do you have a problem with solving simply poverty in a market friendly manner in our at-will employment States.

    And we have over 7 million jobs going unfilled due to a lack of qualified applicants, while 95 million age 16-64 working age Americans sit it out going voluntarily unemployed.

    I hate to interrupt the bleating of "Obama good, Trump ba'a'a'ad" but neither side deserves credit for success. The government does not produce growth, it only hinders it. Trump is less of a hindrance than Obama.

    right wing special pleading? there is no unemployment only underpayment under Capitalism. just one more reason for a fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage and compensation for capitalism's natural rate of unemployment.

    solving for simple poverty can only increase market participation to practical full employment of resources.

    "fill the ounce"!

    In Los Angeles, we are moving towards $15.00 min wage. Its already $13.25. My office building has 2 very nice parking attendants who have been here for years. They both just got replaced by a pay machine last month. The supermarket has wireless bar code scanners for each shopper as they walk in. You scan each item as you place them in the cart and there is no line at checkout.

    Maybe....maybe not. I know women can do wonders with make-up. My daughter looks completely different with make-up vs no make-up....as do many celebrities. Photography, lighting, and post-photography editing makes a big difference as well.

    However, trying to disparage someone based on whether or not they had plastic surgery is nothing more than "image shaming" and is just as petty as the comments towards Michelle Obama....but if that is the games you like to play, then you be you big guy.

    The poor will always be with us. It is a fact and there is a certain percentage of people who are just too low IQ to take care of themselves is also a fact.. let's just not encourage those that can care for themselves to sponge and take from the funds intended for those who can't. Your hate is evident and duly noted from your baseless accusation

    You could be right, but makeup doesn't change the shape of your mouth, nose, eyes, etc. I am not trying to put her down just calling it like I see it.

    I already knew that when I posted this fact. Business can exist without government, but government cannot exist without hindering business.
