    I see value in that. I’ve used such news aggregators in the past.

    This is what it says about articles that have the “Center” label:


    Center
    These publications have no discernable political position. They use very few loaded words and the reporting is well sourced. On a given issue, they present a relatively complete survey of key competing positions. This rating does not necessarily represent “balance” or “neutrality.” A Center rating does not imply that the position is best or most valid.

    True, I get what you're saying, they'll lean a certain way, depending on a story, but at least they're trying to be as objective as possible, certainly more than the other guys.

    I don't think we allowed to say illegals anymore.
    The new term is undocumented.
    Lol

    Wage laborers are the most likely to work on weekends as retail and restaurant services are open on weekends.

    Are you saying wage laborers are typically Republican?

    America has a deep imbedded culture of praising people born on 2nd base having the risk tolerance to start their bakery shop or contracting business.

    When Obama said "you didn't build that by yourself" a lot of thin skinned adult men who were born in upper middle class suburbs where they never feared homelessness if they failed in a business investment venture believing they did everything themselves and never had any lucky breaks or an upper hand relative to the average wage worker got outraged and triggered.


    Are there people who exist who created self sustaining businesses born into poverty where their parents never owned property? Sure. But the vast majority of small businesses owners are small business owners because they were born into situations that allow higher risk tolerance.


    There is nothing inherently "harder working" about a small business owner.

    So they aren't successful enough to employ others to work on weekends? Incompotent.

    Red states are the poorest states and they vote Republican. So either they are being taken advantage of or they are lazy. Which one?

    Not the great state of Texas. We got more Californians, New Yorkers and Chicagoans than ever before

    Texas does it right, we just need our boy Trump to build that wall

    If it weren't for the blue cities Texas would be poor too.

    New Mexico produces 1/4th the oil we do with 1/14th the population. I'm not saying it's nothing but there's clearly got to be more than just that.
