    What will happen to Ted Cruz after he loses in November? Will he become a consultant or lobbyist? Maybe a board member for Haliburton?

    I don’t think he has the brains or talent to have his own show on Fox, but I can see him popping up to give his opinion like a canker sore that keeps coming back.

      What pisses me off is somehow people like him are more worthy in our society of basic necessities, like owning a home. I’d have to perform a miracle on my employer’s dead mother to even be considered for a raise, let alone live comfortably even with a degree.

        You can also form a union. On top of the raise and CoLA you and your coworkers negotiate into your contract, you make people like Cruz, Trump, and Christie seethe

          Countdown until unions are made illegal in Texas…

            They can try, they’ll just make unions more radical. Look up the Texas Lumber War

              If it’s anything like the Battle of Blair Mountain we’re overdue for a reminder.

                I wanted to keep it regional, but yea this lumber war is known for the Grabow massacre that killed 3 union members and wounded 50.

                The overarching coal wars (to those just now learning about this, yes there were multiple) in general are fascinating. Bloody Harlan is another good example
