If low paying jobs are essential to keeping the cost of produce down, then why wasn’t there more restraint shown against raising the minimum wage?
There was plenty of restraint shown. It was the price of getting the war funding through — it was in the same bill. I’m ok with it I think. I knew when the rats took power that we were going to end up having to let them have it, I only hoped we’d get something worthwhile in return.
Course we know that all it’s going to do is put a bunch more people who are playing by the rules out of a job as unscrupulous employers hire illegals who don’t give a flip about minimum wage as long as they get paid in cash.
