What we need is a "21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity" which would make it a mandatory requirement that the president and Congress attain and maintain full employment.

Shame on George Galloway

Very sad to see George Galloway opposing any form of Basic Income Guarantee. But, he is an upper middle class intellectual who then talks about people who would just sit around on their sofa... like he has ever worked in a sweatshop. Of course his RT interviewer agreed with him... she just finds it offensive people don’t want to “work” like she has to.


This is why we need working people thinking and speaking for themselves.


We work so even these so-called “leftists” can pontificate against us claiming they are for us.
Galloway should be challenged on Basic Income Guarantee.


Galloway says everyone who can work, should work even though he really has never experienced real work for himself... he might have a different view of the Basic Income Guarantee if he had to work nine or ten hours a day (Or more) six days a week in a sweatshop for which he was paid a poverty wage.


Shame on George Galloway.
