What really kills me about these discussions is how ridiculously two-faced they are...
1) Cost of living goes UP, and the minimum wage stays STAGNANT, that's nothing...
2) But insisting that the minimum wage must go UP to match the cost of living, suddenly that's class warfare.
That's an attack on small business...
Any rational and objective observer would notice that the Republicans are GAINING ground on one side, and insisting that nobody should look at what goes on behind the curtain.
But when people try to FIX the system to ADJUST things back to the
WAY THEY WERE, then suddenly its something that will topple the world...
