I'm damn tired of people who claim to be the left

398. I think that you believe that if the term "wages" are not included in a discussion of "social issue

that "economic justice" isn't being discussed.

When people talk about social justice issues, they are talking about the root of economic disparity. They are intertwined - and you seem to think that they are not, or you wouldn't be accusing people of not talking enough about economic issues.

When one talks about women being legislatively being compelled to carry a unplanned pregnancy to term, or is blocked from affordable Rx contraception - that has huge economic ramifications for her, even if minimum wage ceilings aren't talked mentioned.

When one talks about the school to prison pipeline for young black men, that has massive economic implications for families and entire generations, even if Wall Street is not mentioned.

When one talks about deporting a parent who is a law abiding, working head of a household, that involves economic injustice, even if it the discussion doesn't include corporate outsourcing of manufacturing jobs.

When one discusses transgender persons being legally evicted or refused housing based on their gender, that involves economic injustice, even if it doesn't involve rising health care costs.

When one talks about a disabled child not getting the services that they need in public school to get an education, that results in economic injustice, even if the TPP isn't a part of the discussion.

Is that clearer?
