Let’s go back to picayune arguments about the Knicks, please

Oh, no, please not that. The only thing that makes this site worth visiting is the non-Knicks content. Music, food, immigration, anything!

he played on some good teams…i remember him getting covered a good bit from sportscasters while he played, which seemed like a really really long time…

he moved in slo-mo a lot…

any chance zach edey becomes an effective player right away…he’s slotted around right after our 2 probable picks…

In reply to Educate_the_weak.

Do you think Andre Miller was a star in the NBA? Never made an All-Star team. So…what do you think?

The statement that today “is an excellent economy for anyone in search of work” may sound nice as a slogan for the Democratic Party but is out of touch with reality. May I remind everyone that the minimum wage in a lot of states still remains as low as $7.25 per hour. If the minimum wage were following the rise of the cost of living since the early 70s, it would be around $35-40 today. Furthermore, labor unionization, despite recent improvements, is still under 10%. It was about 40% in the early 70s. Labor in this country remains unorganized and powerless. Under these conditions, low unemployment rate does nothing to ameliorate economic contradictions and wealth disparities. Presenting it as a sign of improving life conditions only adds insult to injury.

For those same reasons, the other side of the discussion here is also off target, by an even wider margin. Undocumented labor was never in shortage in this country. It is true that additional rightless and desperate people entering the labor market make things more difficult, but this a minor factor in the plight of working people. The problem is that those “worker protections codified after much effort, sweat, and bloodshed into US law” are as weak as they have been in a century, and they are most aggressively targeted by those on the right and far right sides of the political spectrum. It will suffice to remind that the first MAGA labor secretary was calling the concept of minimum wage “obsolete.” Watch out if those people return to power!

Why doesn’t Thibs just tell more people to get jobs?
