MSNBC: Hillary supports the fight for $15 minimum wage - just not the wage itselfIf you’ve been paying attention to the demands of the guy who hands you your fries at the drive-through, you know that he’d like to make more money. No, he doesn’t have any discernable skills, but that’s not the point. Some people make more than he does, and that’s unfair. He is demanding fifteen dollars an hour.
Never mind that, if we raise the minimum wage to $15, jobs will be lost, businesses will close, and the cost of living will jump accordingly. More is better. Context is irrelevant, because that higher number is all that matters.
So, you might be wondering: Does the troubling-yet-presumptive Democrat nominee support the $15 minimum wage?
Fortunately, MSNBC has an answer to this question.

That 1%’r cares so much for the little people.
No matter the economic realities, the American people will always believe in a $15 (or more) minimum wage. They are simply incorrigible when it comes to economics.
Hillary is pandering and pathetic. I know many independant and they are not going for her unless we select baby bush or chritie. Others are falling fast and some are rising with leadership qualities. I am not impressed with governors for two reasons. 1. they have zero knowkege of foreign policy. 2. they have no knowledg of federal budgets . I’m going to support a Senator for that reason.
Government always wants to spend other people’s money.
Mainly hillary “fights” to (a) not smell “too much”, (2) to remain upright, rather than falling in a drunken stupor, (3) the urge to off herself because she is such a criminal psychopath whose life is a miserable series of failures, (4) the urge to confess sher crimes and enter prison for the rest of her miserable life. Yes...she’s a fighter, alright.
Now say you are a hard working and dedicated, if uneducated worker, you started out 10 years ago making minimum wage and through your perseverance you worked your way up through the ranks and now you are making $16 a hour. Now all of a sudden all your work is for naught, you are only making a dollar more than minimum wage again, that high school kid that just started yesterday is only making a dollar less than you and you've been there a decade! Worst of all the boss says because the company can barely afford to pay the new minimum wage not only will they not be able to increase your wage any, but they are going to have to cut back your hours.
The government has NO business telling any commercial enterprise what they have to pay their employees. Period.
Unfortunately since we have an open border we have to have a minimum wage. It’s that or we become Brazil.
The Nationalsozialistische Democrat Arbeiterpartei leads the way!
Obviously. "It's all about the fight."
Nobody that I know supports a minimum wage at all...it is a private contract between employer and employee.....no one else's business...
Does everybody in her campaign earn at least $15/hour?
Minimum wage cuts both ways. Most folk think about the business owner.
But on the other hand it makes it illegal for a individual to take a job for less. Government is telling the poor...No! You are NOT allowed to work for a wage you might accept.
