an embarrassment. The Trump cult must be losing members.

What kind of stupid American wants to work in a factory assembling

If it was a 40 hour work week and would pay for a basic house, a basic
car, normal healthcare and an old age pension, wouldn't it be ok? But
would all that be the case? Wouldn't all the money go to some rich
person, at the expense of the workers? The joys of capitalism and all
that?

I wouldn't know about any of that stuff. Hawaiians typically have a two
income household. That's just the way things go here. Back in the 70's,
we worked for about 5 bucks an hour each. We were able to pay rent, buy
food, and have cable TV on such paltry earnings.
Hawaii's plantation history made us the most woke state of the union.
Health insurance was provided by the employer for full time workers. The
State of Hawaii is our biggest employer. Unions are strong here.
Anything that adds parity between workers and bosses is always a good
thing. I'm not saying that Hawaii is a worker's paradise. Life is kind
of tough here. In spite of that, Hawaii is among the healthiest and
happiest states in America. That's just the way things go here.
