It is uttered across the political spectrum, because it is widely thought to have universal respect and acceptance. Who could possibly argue with a concept which conveys cherishment of commitment, skill development, and above all personal responsibility to provide for oneself and their family? Dignity of work harkens not only to a pride of traditional labor honestly performed, but can also inspire and motivate all working-aged adults to do their part for the economy and community.

The paper trail and accountability
A letter writer June 15 implies that because the Minnesota Republican convention employed electronic voting that should then be OK in the public vein. In the situation of a limited, identified population such as a convention, it is more efficient and cost effective. I’ve been a delegate.
