i want to see a healthcare bill scored w a $15 minimum wage.
w the extra tax income (assuming multiple earners. mim wage earners shouldnt have to pay jack shit in taxes) and the people that would be bumped to a lower subsidy, what would the impact on the insurance markets be?
so many of our woes would be lessened if people weren't out there working for slave wages. pay a fucking living wage and people dont have to get govt assistance for everything.
and bring back the obama overtime rules. anybody making less than twice the minimum (living) wage is not a salaried supervisor. period.
