lol why


because the people most upset in the initial phase where the AOC/Omar squad who wanted the 15$ min wage porked in, then got shot down by the rules, then wanted the VP to overrule the rules and join their all girl rock group, then went on to calling out Biden for abandoning the 15$ min wage hike.

I simply do not have faith in Nanci to reign in these reps and get them to agree to a straight cash vote. they'd be on twitter that fucking day calling out house leadership for abandoning the workers and all of the other played out shit, then nanci agrees to brief discussions, and that explodes.

the spinzone is always spinning. checks to people is spun into rich people get checks too. checks to people is spun into 1400$ isnt enough. we could pass a 20,000$ to each person bill today and AOC would complain that no min wage and billionaires existing is unfair.

somehow a cap of 80k for $1400 instead of $2000 checks benefits rich people lmao. oh right the “rich people” benefits is contained in the $1.1 trillion of pork barrel spending that seemed to be required before cutting checks to ordinary jane and john america

AOC uses benefits the rich in such a broad manner that she shuts down things that benefit the poor as well. no one eats if the rich eat too mentality. look at her shutting down the amazon expansion, because it enriched Bezos. the sales tax alone would have been a windfall, let alone the (admittedly shitty) jobs in her district. basically, dont work if you cant work a steady stress free job, but also complain if they dont eat.

When the Unions started dying in the late 70's, the hourly salaries stopped rising annually.











What would be really telling is to be able to find a graph of Union decline vs. annual hourly salary increase.

stress free work is a pipe dream. my grandpa always told me growing up: "somewhere is a brownie factory, and there's a guy who's job it is to taste one brownie from each batch. and some days that guy doesnt want to head into work."
