One of the big reasons there's been a pushback against Sanders in favor of Warren right now is because there are millions and millions of people who are happy with the insurance plans their workplaces provide or plans they negotiated on their own. That's reality for the majority across all demographics above that 2.3%.
Warren and Sanders are both saying scrap that bull****

And I don’t give a **** about your ignorant denialism

The truth is the ****ing truth

And the 2.3%? Dude seriously are you literate? Cause it seems like you can’t ****ing read.

I read it fine. Which side of this argument has a greater number of people? You can't sell me on the idea that the system is broken if the vast majority are doing okay versus not. This isn't an argument about the very top versus the very bottom. The middle class covers a huge spectrum of people even now. That's why I brought up the total U.S. population into this. You have to step back and look at it.

Bitch filet and Olive Garden are death sentence jobs

You have yet to refute a single one of my points.

They aren't death sentences if you want a career there. You going to tell me a bedtime story about how X friend was passed up for a Manager job at Olive Garden after busting his butt for 10 years or something because of kitchen politics? That's not an argument.

Go work at either one for a few years and get back to me. There’s no ****ing future at the goddamn Olive Garden. I’m done with this. You’re lost.

Sorry, it's clearly not as self-evident for you as it is for me. The terrible working conditions inform the high turnover rates, which is the issue at hand. It's not like your responses have actually refuted the idea of terrible working conditions for low pay being far too common.
