Trump promised Jobs, he has failed to deliver

Donald Trump promised to bring jobs back to America and revive manufacturing jobs in Midwestern states. His trade polices have had the opposite effects. This is a clear indication that Trump's policies have benefited the one percent, instead of the 99 percent. Voter's need to be reminded that when economy really breaks down because of Trump's policies he will not be able to rescue us from disaster like Obama did?

Low unemployment is misleading and not a sign of a strong economy

Federal reserve and the Trump white house have been pointing to the low unemployment to signal a strong economy, they were wrong. In their unemployment numbers they don't count people who have dropped out and have not found a job for 7 months or longer. Furthermore the wages, which usually go up in a strong job market have been stagnant. The economy is not as great as the politicians want you to believe.

Some of the climate change consequences are not apparent but they are happening

Saltwater is killing off woodlands all along the mid-Atlantic coast, sometimes surprisingly far from the sea. This is all a consequence of melting ice and rising sea waters. Climate change effects will cascade and men will not be able to cope. It will cost way more than what we have to do now to reverse the trend. This report here is talking about areas on NY, NJ, Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, close to home!

Man is not equipped to deal with the rapid changes in climate change

Rapid and massive flooding of urban areas will only get worse with Climate Change. Houston is a prime example. The passed new building codes and budgeted billions for flood control in 2017. Tropical storm Imelda which hit 2 weeks ago shows that their efforts have not helped much. Houston has experienced one 500 year flood and 2 one hundred year flood since 2016. The cost of inaction or slow action will be much more. We need structural change.
