The minimum wage (Living wage) argument is so silly.

You pay someone $20 an hour to flip burgers and the price of burgers goes up.

The burger flipper is in the same spot, due to price increases.

The person that gets screwed is the retiree on a FIXED income.

Union punks also benefit from minimum wage hikes as they have their pay linked to the minimum wage.

Minimum wage goes up, and they get an equivalent increase in their pay.

Not so for the bulk of the middle class whose wages have been stagnant for a decade.

Also, you need to watch what the players are doing.
Nancy Pelosi championed this “Living wage” Crap, but exempted American Samoa, where she and her hubby have major agricultural holdings.

That witch drove the cost of business up for her competitors and exempted herself.

She should be in jail.
