If you raise the import tariffs and close the borders to illegals, you’ll create enough jobs that the demand for labor will automatically raise the wages.
Then you avoid the nasty side effects of a minimum wage.
Boehner and House Republicans will cave, there will be a compromise of $11.00/hr and Republicans will beat their chests and brag how conservative they were at stopping the higher increase.
Wasn’t it Gingrich who described moderate Bob Dole’s negotiating skills: if the Dems proposed burning down the Library of Congress, Dole would forge a compromise wherein they would only burn one wing at a time.
Murray is totally useless and has been for years. The federal government screwing around with the minimum wage while the world is afire with black jackasses in this country and their counterparts in the muslim world is sheer insanity.
I’m sure Mitch and Tammy Faye will push it right through. Anything to keep the Dems happy.
Does anybody have a link to the story..some decades ago, when the Democrats passed a tax on luxury yachts..to supposedly “get” the rich, and shortly after, several boat builders closed down, because the rich stopped buying yachts, and several thousand blue collar workers lost their jobs..
The Republicans winning and controlling both house of congress and Boner caving are not mutually exclusive of one another. So no, I’m not wrong.
Are you not aware of president Jug Ears’ condescending statement to john McCain when he’d slaughtered him in the 2008 election? Maybe you didn’t get the reference.
Isn’t it much more appropriate to make the minimum wage $1,228,483,953,642,829,934,462,456,462,275,253,949,387,468,977,749,236,479,977,593,635,828,425,467,256,398,695,665

Per picosecond?
Then we could ALL be RICH!
