Maybe, maybe not. This is an anonymous forum so you know as much about me as I know about you.

my point is that when I read fear-mongering of what a Dem President will mean for our careers, it just doesn’t pan out. If you liked the past four years the you should realize that Your good fortune is a combination of growth, seniority movement and a good contract.
The seniority movement is the result of age 65 finally catching up (changes from age 60 under Bush),
the growth was the result of a successful company executing its business plan. That plan was formed and in effect before Trump took office (think massive 737, 787 orders and deliveries AND 777-300 orders)
Finally, our current contract was signed while a Dem was in office. Have we seen a new contract under Trump? Nope.
so, stop being afraid, crack a cold one and make a change in November.

It's not just bumbling biden; it's about split government. Sure, I'll take a bumbling biden all day every day as long as the House flips 40 seats from D to R. But that's not going to happen so I'll take:
D House
pretty much split Senate
R POTUS

Don't hurt yourself. Power? No. Responsibility? Yes. The tone should be set by the president. State governors/local officials should want to follow. Past presidents of both parties have understood this during difficult times. It is a shame our current president has not.
Just watching you hard lefties stew for the last four years is an excellent reason for me to want to see Trump reelected.

FWIW my health is fine...I've got long hair, a beard, and low blood pressure. I'm as chill and relaxed as I've ever been... How about you?

Wow. I really wish I knew your, MoP, and RJDios ideology so I could understand the hypersensitivity and compelling need to chime into the thread. At least two of you have obviously been around long enough to see the fallacy of RJDio projecting his personal experience on an entire career in this profession. He is apparently 34 years old which means he came into the profession no more than 13 years ago (maybe even 11 years ago). If you actually agree with his conclusion that R administrations are best for our career based on his earnings for the past three years, then you deserve to feel trashed.
