So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”?
But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"?
Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

"If the job is not essential...obviously they should not be on the public payroll."
What does this mean?
Trump's EO calls for focusing reductions in force for employees deemed "non-essential" during a shutdown. That is 800,000 employees. The want a permanent government shutdown.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?
