The Wall Street Journal, where rarely you find fake news because they mostly print all that in their editorial section, breaks the news that Trump is going to name his labor secretary.

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to name fast-food executive Andy Puzder as labor secretary, according to people familiar with the decision.

Mr. Puzder, chief executive of CKE Restaurants Holdings Inc., the parent company of the Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s burger chains, has been a vocal advocate for cutting back regulations he says have stifled growth in the restaurant industry, which represents 10% of the American workforce.

Needless to say, he hates the Affordable Care Act.  He also hates raising the minimum wage higher than $9 an hour.

He’s not what you would call a people-person.

“They’re always polite, they always upsell, they never take a vacation, they never show up late, there’s never a slip-and-fall, or an age, sex, or race discrimination case,” says Puzder of swapping employees for machines.

Remember when Rick Perry wanted to eliminate three federal agencies?  It appears that Trump wants to turn them all into Darth Vader.

“Voters in high dudgeon against Wall Street manipulators and the Washington aristocracy vote for the billionaire populist who puts tycoons in power … If Billy the Kid had been smart, he’d’ve run for sheriff.”

I hate these people.  I can’t help it.
