    Stop it. Inflation doesn't work in this argument. Pesky economics are trivial to the vote buying rallying cries.

    Check this out: Wage disparity, income equality, living wage. I'm a campaign now.

    I know. I wasn't down playing it. I believe that Jay knows I'd personally help him out if he needed it.

    No, I mean a legit necessity. Heat destroys me due to my health issues. I can't even take hot showers.

    You're not really that far off in that last part. Here's how you get voted into office:

    1) Come up with a handful of soundbytes that sound good to the masses (Props to Barry O on "Wall Street v. Main Street". That's constituent porn.)
    2) Focus on the soundbytes. Craft speeches around them.
    3) When questions are asked, you don't necessarily have to answer the ACTUAL question that was asked. Rather, you use the question as a jumping-off point to transition back over to your soundbytes.
    4) Practice part #3. Get good at it.
    5) Win!

    Either #3 or only call on reporters willing to ask pre agreed to questions.

    Nah, gotta go #3. That's the key. Obama is good at it.

    What is the total wage when you count employer paid benefits?

    I bet at least 2/3rds of the people he calls on he at worst knows the questions won't be hostile

    Okay sure, but during a campaign you can't avoid tough questions. Somebody will ask them. Skill at part 3 separates wheat from chaff.

    Something a page or two back sounds suspiciously like trickle down economics.

    You mean the guy who dramatically increased middle class wages during his presidency?

    Which no doubt was due to one aspect of a multi year platform...

    Correct. Tax cuts and reform. Glad we agree

    Never said I disagreed, or that the statement applied to you. Why are you so self-conscious?
