[QUOTE="hubrat, post: 817542, member: 869"] Well unions were one thing, and that's not over yet. The next thing is that some democrats want to raise minimum wage. I think it's GOPs in Michigan that are trying to lower it? That is a joke. You start talking bout minimum wage and ppl's livelihoods, you get their attention. That is the one thing a majority of ppl agree on. In one of the votes it was like 79/21 in favor of upping the minimum wage. IMO the right won't get better odds on that stand. Economic populism. A lot of extreme republicans are against it. Now I have a great job just now, but any number of things could change that. I've got a couple back-up plans that are promising, but if they didn't pan out or I didn't enjoy them, I would want the minimum wage as high as I could get it. That really could create an economic boom. And I still haven't seen any documentation telling me my pension is fully funded. So I might want an easy hourly job when I'm old so I can go once a year and sit on some rocks and watch the sun go down. [/QUOTE]
