[FONT=Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]I disagree. He's an elitist who looks down upon your everyday Joe sixpack.That isn't belitting factory or farming jobs at all. The media is so fucking stupid.
Of all the things you could credibly attack Bloomberg on and they waste their time with this BS.
I guess they can't really go after him for his stance on mass migration since they agree with it.
Also, it isn't a campaign speech. He is at an event talking about the changing dynamics of the labor market. Whether you agree or disagree with his point, it isn't offensive to anyone. Snowflakes to the left of me, snowflakes to the right.
[FONT=Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Calibri,Geneva,sans-serif]Perception is everything. To your average Joe he comes across as being an asshole.They take 30 seconds of a 60 minute conversation and try to make him look like he is saying anyone can do a job and it is beneath him. He may be an elitist but that wasn't his point at all.
Farming has become highly mechanized as have other jobs is all he was saying. The dynamics of the labor market are fluid and he was commenting on some of the 21st century challenges.
I like Bloomberg's network, I think he has the best financial network but I would never want him to be President...
However, if the critiques of him are going to be shit like that and the faux-outrage over his stop and frisk comments then it is just a joke.
Condescending and stupid, very consistent with his policies like banning soda pop
Since the media is looking to him to save 2020 for them, I don't think they're trying to torpedo him
Context, PatsFan, context...
"The elderly should not get medical care to save money"
"Anyone can be a farmer. Plant a seed, water it and watch it grow!"
"Young black and Latino men don't know how to behave in the workplace" face)(*^%
This is what happens when you have more money than brains. Doomberg personifies "old rich racist white guy" and he's running as a Democrat. Imagine the unrelenting vicious attacks if he were our Mitt Romney for this election cycle.
You gotta admit, the campaign ads write themselves. You don't have to live in Flyover country to know that Doomberg is a pompous, ignorant out-of-touch elitist asshole.
