Researchers found that working women and women of color are particularly affected by the disparities in pay.

Of course.

[Chode]

many unions contracts are hooked to the min-wage too

[FlipWilson]

Yes. Those evil corporations aren’t paying enough to keep up with something that is totally Putin’s fault. Cough.

Inflation. Shut down the economy for a year, and print money to compensate, and you get massive inflation.

It will help if they return to drilling for oil to bring us back to energy independence, and it will help if we bring more of our manufacturing back on shore. We used to have a president who understood that.

[hflynn]

No problem, Joe Biden said he has a plan today to inflate your dying wage to a living wage. Biden said, Let me be clear, I plan to do a whole lot of economic inflating. I plan to keep inflating until this economy is all blown up, you hear me all blown up.

I want a SS raise....a big one....double at least from what they hand out to me from my decades of work..

Researchers said that about $3,000 more per student, per year is needed to support achievement of national average test scores.

Give me the school budgets....I could fix them really quick.

The U.S. is one of the most dangerous high-income countries in which to give birth—especially for people of color. To achieve birth justice so that all who give birth can have healthy pregnancies and healthy babies, we must center the voices and experiences of Black, Indigenous and other people of color and dismantle the structural racism and health inequities that fuel these disparities. Learn more about our birth justice grantees.

That's about all we need to know about them.

I suspect that what many people need is to stop trying to indulge their champagne tastes with a beer income.

[dljordan]

Does that include the illegals that get a full welfare ride? Oh, and the ‘refugees’?

[Still Thinking]

Are they alive?

[Pilgrim's Progress]

So, what’s it going to be? Are employers going to pay more taxes to the Democrats so they can go out and waste the money on buying votes to stay in power, or are the employers going to get tax breaks which they can pass on to their employees increased wages?

[Huskrrrr]

McDonald employees already make more than daycare workers.

[KarlInOhio]

Across U.S. counties, a minimum wage worker (at the federal amount of $7.25 an hour) with two children would need to allocate nearly all (90%) of an annual paycheck towards the average cost of childcare.

And how much will it be when the babysitter has to be paid $65.45 per hour?

[TonyM]

If the minimum wage is doubled then everyones pay must be doubled, including Social Security, all government employees, military active, retired, and reserves. What will that do to the deficit? It will result in hyper inflation like Zimbabwe where a pocket full of Trillion Dollar bills won’t even be enough to fill up your gas tank.
