Socialists are always demanding other people to open their wallets to them. They might as well go door-to-door with a gun, acting as a "charity".

Color me astonished!

One of my daughter’s good college friends (now in early 30s) is constantly posting Bernie Sanders crap on Facebook. I like the girl and her family personally, but geez, the socialist crap on Facebook is so tiring.

Aren’t most internships unpaid positions? Seems like they used to be, anyway.

A number of years ago, the owner of a local barbecue joint was on the news calling for a minimum wage increase. He said, “I want to pay my guys more.” They then brought on one of his workers, and he said, “He’s a good man! He looks out for us and wants us to earn a better living.” Umm, guess no one told you boss man could pay you more RIGHT NOW. But, smart on his part; do nothing, come out smelling like a rose.

IIRC ... that’s about $11 and 100¢ an hour more than HRC is paying her interns...

Some talking head was on an interview about the minimum wage....he said:*There’s no way that anything my 16 y/o son does is worth $15./hour. Nothing.*

It was very, very funny.

The real minimum wage is $0.00.

Liberals forget that.

at the risk of being called a liberal I want a static minimum wage witch is tied to what ever is the maximum wage that is being paid to the president of the corporation and for small business it should be figured by how much the company makes in profit each year and how many employs the company supports. this would lead to less profitable endeavors having a lower minimum wage while anything that is highly profitable having to pay more......having a fixed minimum wage is extremely bad for the poor because periodically someone gets the bright idea to raise the minume wage thinking they are helping the poor. This is extremely bad for those that are not competitive enough to get better jobs. and anyone retired on social security. for the low paid wage earner over night what ever wage increase he has gotten if he has stayed with the job is wiped out because the employer cant afford to pass on those wage increases he has gotten . in the next 3-6 months inflation hits driving up the cost of food and housing because business have to pas on there costs to everyone else if they are going to survive as a business.

the liberals got to face the facts that raising a fixed minimum wage is bad.

The bennies and opportunities for meaningful employment after their internship are head and shoulders above most $15/hr private sector jobs I would think.

Considering the whole picture, $12/hr can be considered food money while learning the crony capitalism ropes, which can yield literally a fortune down the road.

Still, it does seem hypocritical.

“Oh, but this is DIFFERENT! The intern jobs have value that makes up for the low wage because they give the worker experience they would not otherwise be able to get...”

As if any minimum wage job is meant to be anything else.

I believe I read somewhere that that HRC pays interns nothing; their pay is the privilege of “being in her presence”.
