i saw something like that circulating on facebook, $4.00 burgers, $18 wages+benefits

as it turns out, the best way to raise all ships is to just increase the minimum water level

the liberal media is focused on 1/6 because the democrats aren't doing anything policy wise, and are running on "protecting democracy" in the midterms

Certainly, but don't be surprised when the only thing congress can agree on is spying on us more.

That's cool. Millions of people work for starvation wages in this country, and if the minimum wage had kept pace with inflation it'd be like $27/hr right now. But thanks for the update about some restaurant in your town, I guess.

i mean the place is a literal example of a success story for spiking the minimum wage, it's cool to be mad it's not happening for the rest of us but at least it's functional progress, somewhere

the big problem with the Democratic party is that it completely fails to take these successes and apply them on the national scale because they're constantly pandering to voters that either do not exist (and have never existed) or voters that aren't going to change sides

Nah, they're just money laundering schemes.

Those people's lives aren't affected by anything. The average suburbanite who thought Trump was going to meaningfully affect their lives by taking away their right to vote for "not their favorite choice" is very funny.

Rent rising by 5-6% every year for 30 years straight is not only sustainable, but a sign of a healthy and well balanced economy.

You can see how healthy it is. When wages stay the same over that period people are still somehow mostly able to not die of exposure!

The system works?
