The way to successfully increase wages is to increase the demand for workers.

We could do that by restoring the import tariffs back to where they were for the first 190 years of our country’s existence. Lets make things in America again.

It would also help if we closed the border and stopped immigration while our unemployment is so high. (25% according to shadowstats.com)

We should have about 170 million people employed today.

We’re 40 million short. I figured it out recently, and it comes out to something like 22.8% of our potential work-force out of work. And that doesn’t address how many are working for far less than they used to make.

It’s disgusting.

And so what do our pathetic exuses for leaders do, they spent all their time trying to keep our worker’s replacements in country. If the clowns in D. C. were physicians, they’d be paying massive amounts of money for malpractice.
