The headline write calls a per hour rate a “salary”?
It’s California.
Money is not a problema.
If it is in the future, President Warren will decree federal bailouts for blue states.
They will cut the hours to make up the difference.
Non union janitors were making 10 to 15 dollars an hour at my high school back in the 80s.
Wait until those new ObamaCare premiums kick in
and union dues will go up and the union campaign contributions will increase and in a few years, the minimum wage will increase.
Its gonna raise costs in private sector businesses. Evidence, last weekend I bought 2 books for $20 4 years ago I could buy 3 for $20 and 6 years ago I could buy 4 books for $15
If I was a senior citizen on a fixed income, I’d be getting worried just about now...
Since the 2014 wage limit for Earned Income Credit for Raul appears to be 53 grand, I doubt he is paying ANY income tax at all and likely getting "free money" from Uncle Baraq.
So now instead of 20,000 a year with social services it will be 30,000 a year with reduced social services. Minus union dues and this person is SOL.
15 an hour from the SEIU? This is what killed America. Dem pol negotiates with SEIU and loots the treasury. Dues gets kicked back to election committee after the skim by union leadership. Workers get what they think is a good deal until it all goes bust and they are out of a job while the leaders vacation in Cabo.
I think the word for the SEIU is...parasite.
And you'll notice that Raul isn't being paid these bucks by a private-sector firm. No, it's a school district.
Nothing spends as easy as someone else's money.
Raul gets credit for working- it’s called a paycheck. It’s just unfortunate he supports policies that do more to harm the workforce in the long run due to ignorance. I’m glad he’s a net producer. I just wish he could see the harm those policies are eventually going to do to him and others.
CC
a fool and his money.
Huey Long demanded every government worker paid a portion of their income to his reelection campaign. IOW tribute aka union dues.
Any government employee who did not give the kickback, they were fired.
This 15 dollar an hour is a joke. It will be eaten by inflation and “user fees”.
Hobby Lobby pays a minimum of $14 an hour with no union dues to pay.
So you just picked the pockets of a bunch of working people so you can scrub toilets and clean up some kids puke for more than some people with college degrees are able to make.”
No kidding. I do more work than this guy and I don’t even make $15 an hour, and depending on the weather I’m lucky to get 40 hours a week sometimes.
explain to raul those families which have just sent their kids across the border illegally are going to be mooching off his pay raise and TAKING his hard earned money just because Obama demands it.
How much does her husband make?
Otherwise, the important thing concerning this SEIU-negotiated raise is that it wasn't legislatively forced by the federal government. This is because the states have never delegated to Congress, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate intrastate labor.
So although the long-term effects of the raise on the school's budget were probably not well-planned or ignored, let's see what happens.
I love these sad stories. The Washington Post wants sad stories? Well, there’s about seven billion sad stories. And that’s not even counting the historical sad stories.
The market will figure out what your labor is worth. Any other way is discriminatory.
You want to make more money? Figure it out. Lots of people have. They just do it and don’t become a story in the Washington Post.
I can’t afford to pay out for every sad story a liberal encounters.
Do they ever put 2 and 2 together?
Not if they use common core math.......
