Normally I’d be opposed to a $15.00/hr min. wage but at this point anything that pushes the money down to the lower economic strata is a good thing. I did some research and there is no historical statistical correlation/relationship between raising the min wage and unemployment. No relationship what so ever.

Not sure why this was directed to me, but the absolute biggest threat to our Nation, and the biggest failure of the last several decades is that the flow of CAPITAL has NOT been flowing well...

Those on the bottom and even into the middle have been getting less and less, because the flow of capital has been being diverted, and is NOT flowing like it should.

I don’t know if I agree with the $15 minimum wage, but there is NO DOUBT that capital needs to flow better throughout the economy and socioeconomic tiers, because it HAS NOT BEEN, and that my friends is the single biggest threat to our nation.

The better the dollars flow through ALL TIERS of our society, the stronger and better our nation and future will be... We cannot stay on the same path we have been on for the last several decades.. Sooner or later, something will give, and it will not be pretty.

Trumps advocation of America first, and job creation throughout the economy, particularly in manufacturing and other areas, is unleashing a BEAST... The same beast that helped build this great nation and win 2 world wars... The systemic extraction and exportation of wealth has to end... Wall Street has become utterly disconnected from main street.. the idea that something good for main street, but wall street doesn’t like, is bad, is nonsense.
