He’s right about minimum wage. If we want to be consistent about it (and believe me I DO NOT), it should indexed to inflation, etc. Which means the 1977 minimum wage should probably be in the $8 to $9+ per hour range.

It might wreck the economy, but it would have the unintended consequence of wrecking the RINO labor market for cheap illegal peasant labor and the Rat market for free illegal votes.

Yet I think he’s a bit miserly on the 1 million 8a housing certificates. With about 65 million families in our “two Americas” (30 million “rich”, 35 million “poor”), surely he’ll need 5 or 10 or even 20 million cheap housing giveaways to bring things to parity.

I think it would exacerbate the problem. Many, if not most are paid under the table and under minimum wages.....
