minimum wage needs to be raised to $10.10 [View all]
As we know the infamous "alec", "tea party" and the "heritage groups" all funded by some of the richest people and corp. to suppress the worker and increase their wealth are against anything that would benefit the majority! A perfect example of more money than values is the idiot racing on the beach (Bieber) in a rented sports car! I mean really how much is enough for these a-holes? Of course you know what happens overseas when it gets to top heavy=blood gets spilled! How many times has economies failed and the riots begin often with bloodshed!
The minimum wage today has less buying power than it did fifty years ago. Thats just wrong.
We can change that. The Fair Minimum Wage Act would increase the minimum wage to $10.10 an hour, up from $7.25 today, and provide a raise for tipped workers (who've been stuck at $2.13 an hour since 1991.)
Sign the petition and tell Congress: Its time to raise the minimum wage.
Just as important, the Fair Minimum Wage Act would tie the minimum wage to the rate of inflation so working families earning minimum wage never lose a penny in buying power down the road. We've done that here in Oregon with our minimum wage, and its been a critical factor supporting our working families.
In the last several years, the top 1% have taken home some 95% of the economic gains. A stronger minimum wage means a stronger economy for all of us and better opportunities for working families. Its a critical step towards making sure our nation's prosperity reaches everybody, not just the lucky few.
We must expose these venues the filthy rich use to keep the unknowing in the dark!
where's our tabor boy terry bragdon now? He skipped the state after wasteing millions of mainers pay (no on minimum wages) no on raises to keep pay low while gas and food was skyrocketing! He filled his pockets while the fools that listened to him went in debt!
I,M SURE MY SHADOW THE SHEEPLE WILL RUN RIGHT TO HIS MASTER WITH THIS =SO HERE'S MY MESSAGE =YOUR MINE NOW AND I'M GONNA COLLECT!
