[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2692961, member: 58386"] I believe that what you will see first is a hard shift to the political left. Clearly Trump's policies are designed to favor the wealthy elite with few if any of the benefits going toward the blue collar segment of the population especially those working low wage service jobs. In my state which gladly accepted the expanded Medicaid program we are seeing people coming off welfare and taking the $7.25-$9 wage no benefit jobs due to the preservation of their health insurance through Medicaid. At least they're paying in something but the "replacement" calls for the elimination of expanded Medicaid which means that they will be right back where they came from. Yes, there may be a few manufacturing jobs come back but they will be based on 21st century technology requiring very few people and most of them will require education far above high school with many requiring 4 year engineering degrees. In other words when it comes to 21st century technology either you drive it or it drives you. [/QUOTE]
