...we do need the $15 min wage?

why not $25?

Why not $50?

I mean, more is better, right? More means a more livable wage.

Who decides these min wage amounts?

Only 3.9% of workers are at or below the fed min wage, for those paid on an hourly basis (77 mil) add in those paid on Salary, about another 75 mil and you can cut that rate in half for all people employed. (from the bureau of labor statistics)

Most are young, first job people with no skills. You cream small businesses with mandated $15/hr rates. You think McD's isn't just going to automate their burger flippers and hire less people?
Mom and pop restaurants, scraping by aren't going to hire any new employees and may cut back on personel, or pass the prices to customers.. if their customers will pay for it...if not, unemployment here we come.

So flip the costs onto the public and basically put a round about tax on everyone, even poor people.

You don't understand why we have a minimum wage.
You don't understand how we arrive at it's amount.
You don't know who fixes the wage price.

Your really not giving me much to work with here.....

Liberals are the same as conservatives in that they come in all flavors. I see hypocrisy on both sides, but not in all people. Your talking about liberals when you should be talking about some people who are liberal. It is the same difference as taking about what a black man did as opposed to what blacks do.

Jenner backing the republicans - a group known to be unwelcoming to the LGBT community - while he has a sex change really makes him look stupid. I'm sure he is just voting his wallet, but it does look silly.

And the truth is we do need the $15 minimum wage. We do not need the Duggar family.
By the way I had to look up who the hell the Duggars are - so you must be watching too much of the wrong channels....
Try PBS.

Oh, and while the Duggars are a portrait of a conservative family, they are not representative of conservatism - Thank God.

Why are you so hellbent set on apologizing for liberals on this one?
Liberals are supposed to be inclusive. So much so that it doesn't matter if you decide to be dude or a chick each day.
But a conservative republican???? The horror.
I can see why they give him grief.


And as for the Duggar family, I can happily say that I've never once seen the show, but did watch liberal television hosts pee themselves with delight when they told the story of the kid raping his sister (or whatever it was).

I'd vote for Jenner over Cruz. Jenner is a true conservative.
