Spell it out for us. I asked Deschutes but he won't answer the question.
What are the Dems in congress going to do to make anyone's lives better?
Just a quick look at Adam Hamilton's website provided the following:
- Require competitive bidding for electricity transmission projects
- Ending the Trump Tariffs that are being paid for by Americans
- Standardizing regulations for modular homes to help reduce their costs
- Truth in pricing rules, the price advertised for an item should be the price you pay (refers to "junk fees" tacked on at checkout)
- Strengthening the dept of Labor enforcement ability so they can combat wage theft (unpaid wages, stolen tips, etc.)
Those are all pretty specific things that would make a lot of people's lives better
Most all transmission projects, like most all government projects, are competitively bid. What issue is he solving?
Tariffs have a purpose. You don't have to agree with it, but they are serving a gigantic purpose and have been hugely beneficial to our future as a Country and to our current economy.
Standardizing modular housing is going to reduce their costs? How? I have run several projects where we utilized modular housing for DR housing recovery. There is nothing a government regulation will do to drive costs out of that business.
Junk fee disclosures? Where does this remain an issue? Hotels and airlines resolved their issues mostly by the customers demanding the transparency. Again, where is this an issue?
Trump passed no tax on tips which has to be many multiples the benefit to those workers than any wage theft. Where in the heck is wage theft an issue?
Those are either non-issues or free sodas and candy bars type rhetoric.
If that's what the left is coming with, I would not be putting money on blue. That is not a platform, its a joke.
