You are confusing a minimum wage with a living wage.
A lot of morons do that.

Putin should get the credit according to Biden logic.



Bad economic news = Putin, good economic news = Putin.

There is a $2.01 or $2.02 difference here in London, KY...which I-75 runs through.

Weird....

I guess Democrats should be blaming themselves for this at least 70/30, right? Failure on all fronts...IMPEACH 46!

All those years Reich listed...most of them were under DEMOCRAT control of the FED GOV'T (70% to be exact)
I have said THIS VERY THING in threads here. Democrats get their Jollies talking about how much they "care" about who THEY see as "disadvantaged"...while actually doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for these people. The Liberal Idiots who support this Crap can't get enough of it...while simultaneously despising those of us who see through their Line of Shit.

You would think, sooner or later, that people would get enough of this Bullshit Virtue-Signaling. But as the last couple of years has shown us...that would be wrong. And should one speak out against any of this Bullshit...well, we all know how that goes.

You are really great at making statements with nothing to back them up. Prove it.

The same as inflation. That’s why it’s called a COLA.

I think a lot of people have left the workforce due to money for nothing. A customer of mine told me how much money him and his wife were handed in stimulus and extra child credit, and Covid had no impact on them. You also look at those people that got that federal bonus unemployment money.
A lot of part time workers were pulling in way more not working than they were working.


A lot of these places that have help wanted signs constantly out are often staffed mostly with part time workers. Those are the type that many pulled in
more money not working when Covid shut downs hit. If you were a live at home college student working weekends at McDonalds for gas and pocket money, and got some money for nothing, $300-$600 federal unemployment bonus money and a couple stimulus checks, that $150 or so you got from working 2 shifts a week a McD's could be covered for quite some time. Same for the house wife who does the same to help with household expenses.


Covid has left a lot of employment statistics next to meaningless. We still have a lot of supply chain issues where I am at, you would think this supposed long term full employment would have gotten that mostly fixed by now.

Thanks, in considerable part, to Biden and Harris.

Where is the link? It should not be too easy to blow holes in you BS. The only one I believe is the government pay as most all are paid more than private sector to work less. Walmart, McDonalds, and Target don't give new hires full time hours. Construction workers don't get full time hours either for the most part due to weather, and in many area the low skilled labor jobs are done by illegals. Health Care there are well paid doctors, nurses, and technicians in hospitals. There are just as many or more people as orderlies, housekeepers,
and office workers making low wages. That number might be ok.
