re: #343 Unshaken Defiance

My industry (Jewelry from retail to refining) lost over half of it’s people, mfg capacity, some huge chunk of showroom space in just a handful of years. 100 year plus firms went down like dominoes. We already had no unions, few with medical fewer with retirement, many on commission.

Right, and Trump certainly didn’t say anything in his stump speeches about bringing back the jewelers.

No, ‘Miners’ and ‘bring back coal’ are intended to evoke a particular image and era, and ALL that went with it, especially the part about non-whites, non-straights, non-christians, and non-men knowing their place.
