In Michigan I see fast food places and Menards advertising $13-$13.50 starting pay. Is this what everybody else is seeing in other states?[/QUOTE

Even McDonalds by me is $12 ,and higher for overnights.

CNA's in my area average 15 to 17 per hour.

I haven't seen anyone pay under $10 in quite some time.

Costco just went to $16.

Weren't you just saying increasing Minimum wage would only increase inflation, thus hurting everyone, and helping no one?

Most don't realize the actual Minimum wage is 0.

CBO, says increasing Minimum wage to 15 will cost 1.4 million jobs.

States are welcome to pay whatever Minimum wage they desire, one of the great features of a federalist system. Don't like something in your state, move to a state the you do like. That's what I am doing. Crying about the shithole I live in changes nothing.

come to Tennessee. we are a "right to work" state, which really means "you'll work at the wages we offer or you go the fuck home". probably the most industry friendly/employee surly state in the country. lots of factory jobs etc here start at $8.50 or thereabouts. most get laid off before any holidays to avoid holiday pay.:petting:

Jobs are scarce
Minimum wage is an unlivable poverty level with two jobs
but lets give the wealthy a tax break and save the confederacy
The right is a cult

This isn't a bill for COVID, but rather increase standard of living. Even @ $12.00 and hour, that could help others who work 2-3 jobs at $8.00.

Minimum wage decisions should be left to the states. Louisiana and Mississippi (love typing that!) is different than New York, due to cost of living.
I despise seeing medical jobs starting at $10 an hour when training/certification/professional licesure is in the package.

The current min. wage has not kept up with inflation or economy advances.

Bureau of Labor Statics: The real minimum wage (or wage adjusted for inflation) is 25% lower than it was at its peak in 1968.

Oh look it’s the guy who said it was laughable that joe Biden would further escalate our perpetual war in the Middle East.
I guess we are all laughing now
(Unless ur a Syrian bi poc who just had their children blown to kingdom come)

I mean sleepy joe held out for 34 whole days..that’s pretty good for a rabid Warhawk

Yes that’s the big issue at play..
It’s not the bombs we are dropping...
Or the kids in cages
Or the lack of covid relief
Or the brutal and ineffective lockdowns

It’s the golden effigy of trump dog at some conference..

I'm not sure what the goal is...this guy lost the popular vote twice, the electoral college, even though every possible effort was made to slow down the mail, close polling locations, gerrymandering the shit out of all red states....so when democracy doesn't work for them they don't choose new policy but instead abandoned democracy?

And democratic party is now communism? What the phock ever...it's already falling apart there's no unity of thought in the dem party, never has been. Only the pubs suppress dissent in their own ranks by censuring the members.
Tim kaine is attacking biden foreign policies, co harris is pissing off joe machin, and bernie's fixing to side with the Republicans on the covid bill
