It's not about the paycheck... [View all]

Almost all of the republican ads running in Ohio saying they will create 12 million jobs all follow up wit the line "it's not about the paycheck"

I hear this in every congressional, senatorial and presidential ad for the republican candidate.

Code for, don't expect to get a livable wage?

That's what it sounds like.
