No other Democrat senator supported convicted felon Charles Kushner for a top diplomatic role.

    So I understand you likely are against any universal healthcare in our country? Because of jobs?

    There’s always more healthcare staff needed everywhere, maybe if education and trainings for those jobs wasn’t so expensive…

    Not every person in New Jersey works for big pharma. There are other folks too, Booker should be representing all of them, not just the ones who pay him off.

      No, there is nothing for you to logically conclude that from and I do support universal healthcare.

      Booker does represent everyone and sometimes that means backing one of the state’s biggest industries

        How can you represent the interests of the people, and their needs, while also representing the interests of a corporation when their goals dont align?

          Would you ask the same questions about CA senators representing Silicon Valley or agribusiness? Would ypu ask the same of a MI senator defending the auto industry?

              The answer is sometimes you have to make a calculated choice. I believe that most adults who vote and contribute to campaigns are going to understand that NJ=Pharma to a certain extent.

              Note I don’t like that “and contributes to campaigns” is a factor in politics but this is New Jersey and if Pharma is our #1 industry then corruption has to be #2 or 3.

                Money really needs to get out of politics. It’s foul how we have to play the game to judge the integrity of decisions.

                For the people? Or for the payout?

                Obnoxious government

                Thank you for your sincere response
