Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

The worst president ever has never:

- Stopped a war.
- Saved a life.
- Made huge tariff revenue.
- Worked hard.
- Helped the economy.
- Brought in business.
- Made "huge" tax cuts.
- Created any "aura" besides shitting his diaper.
- Aced "perfect marks" in anything.
- Had "strong results".
