Not $25, but $26? Is this like how Obama claimed there were 7.1 million sign ups instead of just $7 million? Like its more legitimate?

California Democratic congresswoman Barbara Lee expressed support for a $26 minimum wage in her state

With the fed creating money out of thin air, sooner or later, that won't seem so crazy.

$26/hour = $52K/year based on 2000 hours [40 hours x 50 weeks].

Me thinks that would drive the cost of a Big Mac up to $12 ...

“California Democratic congresswoman Barbara Lee expressed support for a $26 minimum wage in her state — a move Republican congressman Andy Harris encouraged, assuming jobs would rapidly flee California to his state of Maryland”

Out of the frying pan and into the fire? Think again, Andy.

Even my daughter’s boyfriend, not a conservative by any terms, understands that the department he works in at Sears (L.A.) has a budget and if the minimum wage increases it means less hours for him and/or layoffs.

Liberalism IS a mental disorder after all.

I think we should determine the salary of the highest paid CEO and then adjust everybody else to that salary. That way, all of us will be able to own a horse that runs in the Kentucky Derby. Imagine 300 million horses racing in next year’s Kentucky Derby (because every American will own one) and how exciting that race will be.

The robot dot com boom is on deck. It just needs a push to take off. $26/hour could instead finance the purchase of $1 million in robots. Unlike humans, the acquisition cost of robotics falls about 10% per year. Having a job will become a historical curiosity for 90% of the population.
