our minimum wage is still $7.25 an hour some make less than that but housing and food and vehicle ownership has skyrocketed as has communication costs
biden has been against empowering workers and strengthening workers rights such as the rail workers he told not to protest and ask for higher wages and more time off then the news came out after about expanding rail industry came out
and now that biden let abortion become illegal on his watch and education is the toilet there will be more warm bodies to fill the low wage positions at the chip factories or at the rail yards or elsewhere that is needed
and without the promised police reforms biden has ensured there will be enforcers to keep the peace in all this like waking people up in vehicles no matter where it is parked
Never was a fan of blaming the entire dumpster fire on the leader of the executive branch any more than I believe we should blame that leader for things like gas prices.
What exactly do we expect the leader of the executive branch to do when the leadership of the judicial branch invalidates a law written by the legislative branch many years ago when it was able to agree on such things.
How much power are we willing to cede to a single person (the president) as a result of our legislative branch being completely unable to function? The legislative branch creates laws, the judicial branch rules on if those laws are constitutional and the executive has a veto and controls the armed forces and foreign policy (among honestly, maybe too many other things). I feel like rewatching schoolhouse rock might be fun. Let’s do that, huh?
As someone who has helped organize a union and is a strong advocate of unions in general, I was very upset with the way Biden handled the railway workers fight. However, I continued to follow that story and it turned out Biden’s administration had a plan for that. They ended up getting the railway workers most of what they were asking for in the end while averting a railway shutdown in the process.
As @tory said, Biden didn’t let the Supreme Court rule on roe v. wade the way they did. It’s two separate entities… Which is a very basic fact when it comes to how the government works. No offense, but if you don’t know that you really don’t have any business commenting on politics at all. You’re speaking with the confidence of a head chef when you can barely put together some scrambled eggs.
North Carolina has had $7.25 as the minimum wage since 2008. It was like $5.15 when I got my first job at 16 (though I was paid $5.25) in the early '90s. Pretty funny when the recent temp Speaker of the House McHenry said he only makes $174,000 a year and that’s not enough. A recent article said most reps have two residences (one in DC and one in their home state, but still). $174,000 isn’t enough and Congress still bitches about raising the minim wage to $15, which is around $30K a year.

Punctuation is neat.
Gosh why can’t the Democrats nominate somebody else? Ugh
STFU. Ignorant twat.
