“The current min wage is $7.25/hr which is just as ridiculous as the proposed $22.00/hr.”
I have never believed in the minimum wage concept but if we are to have one then $7.25 truly is absurd, it has maybe half the purchasing power of the 1963 minimum of $1.25. My question to those who do believe in the concept is why not have a minimum of at least a hundred per hour if they think it really works?
You are being ridiculous and flippant and the GOP is alienating 10's of millions of wage earners. It is a political issue more than an economic one. If you and the GOP won't take this issue seriously then we will get a President Sanders one day. Deservedly so.
