A pair of progressive Democrats unveiled a bill on Tuesday that would raise the federal minimum wage to $25 per hour, considered the bare minimum a single adult needs to meet the cost of living in much of the US.
The Living Wage For All Act is the first bill to be introduced by the newly sworn-in Rep. Analilia Mejía (D-NJ), who won a special election earlier this month after helping to lead the fight for a $15 minimum wage in her home state of New Jersey.
Fix poverty and you’ll see a bunch of completely unrelated problems magically disappear.
Which is exactly why rich people love poverty so much. Revenue stream.
The rich also like poverty and homeless so they can use it to scare the masses. “Thinking about asking your boss for a raise, careful. Ask for too much and you’ll be replaced and end up homeless.”
The system requires people to be unemployed. If everyone had a job and paid their bills on time the country would collapse.
Remember that the next time they talk numbers and labor supply.
