RAFTGUIDE WROTE: "Why $7.50/hr? Lets do it better. Let's raise it to $10, or $12, or $100!"

Once you confront a minimum-wage-increaser with a suggestion of increasing the minimum wage to $100/hour, they ADMIT why we couldn't POSSIBLY do that...No business could afford to hire anyone and the POOREST would be WORSE off!

But somehow, they don't figure out that establishing ANY minimum wage HURTS the POOREST the MOST.

Typical Rat exaggeration:

"The answer is something else. Pelosi plans to enact the Democrats’ “Six for ’06” agenda in 100 legislative hours — not real hours.

And a legislative hour is not just any hour that the House is open for business. “It’s when the House convenes, after the one-minutes and before the special orders,” says Pelosi spokesman Brendan Daly, referring to the times of day when members of Congress will sometimes drone on about any issue that comes to mind.

At that pace, Daly says, the first 100 hours “could take a couple of weeks.”
