What country’s economic system would you like to see ours take after?

Congress controls the money?
You mean the President shouldn't control that?

Okay now explain to me how taxing me to pay for universal healthcare and taking away my private insurance letting UPS off the hook for thousands is going to redistribute wealth to me.

Democrats are entertaining.
the entire system is rigged, the United States government is oppressive to poor.
Let’s expand and empower the system!

No, not all of Congress, the House of Representatives. The administration submits a budget and Congress deliberates on what to approve or not approve. Once approved the administration has to work within guidelines and go through a process to reallocate funds because at times needs arise. It's why Trump couldn't just spend what he wanted to build the border wall because it wasn't allocated in the budget by the House.

UPS would not be off the hook for anything-----the proposal would have them paying the equivalent of what they are paying for premiums in taxes to help fund healthcare for all.

So, wealth is an entitlement? birthright? shared entity?
Any second now I expect you to say you 'didn't ask to be born!'
And yet you railed against FedEx over pay relentlessly for how many years now? I certainly did too over the poor raises, not getting us to top out. But I also realized there was no way with the expenditures they have that they could get us close to UPS pay and benefits. You refuse to accept that and have ripped me for stating that. It's not about taking up for FedEx, it's just math. If I wanted better I was going to have to leave. I did. But what I'm doing comes at a price. I drove 11,000 miles in my last two week pay period(16 days actually), and that included sitting for three days. Did things like pick up in Chicago at 1730 on a Wednesday and delivered in Phoenix at 0625 on Friday. Doesn't allow much sleep. Once had 11 hours of sleep over three days. The pay is good, but doubt after 6 months I'll make it another 6 months. It is what it is, but I'm old enough that I don care. I have a $22k pension to supplement whatever I do.

I did the extra work, bought fixer uppers and educated myself. I don't care whether you believe I have the education or not. I worked hard and made smart choices.

Who said I don't believe you have the education? Have me confused with Dano? All I ever wanted was to get a decent pension and move overseas. But I got married and she's not into that. So I'm doing whatever I can to get us to a better retirement. Truth is most jobs are excruciatingly dull and I've never cared to move up anyone's ladder as it seems to involve way too much ass kissing. So I'm probably right where I should be and will just deal with it. Can save money doing this, couldn't save real money with FedEx.

The Legislature appropriates the money and the Executive Branch spends it.
