Bachmann Yesterday - end minimum wage! Today - we can't afford jobs that pay too little! |

Edited on Mon Jun-27-11 12:42 PM by spedtr90
Bachmann 6/27/11 ---“We can’t afford four more years of millions of Americans out of work or in jobs that pay too little to support their families.
Bachmann 6/26/11---- she would stoke U.S. economic growth by cutting taxes on corporate income and capital gains and considering elimination of the minimum wage. (Bloomberg news)
Bachmann 1/26/05 ---- "Literally, if we took away the minimum wage—if conceivably it was gone—we could potentially virtually wipe out unemployment completely because we would be able to offer jobs at whatever level." If we allow businesses to be prosperous and accrue capital, they’ll be giving their employees more than they can even begin to imagine.
Apparently she thinks employees are dreaming of less than minimum wages..... and minimum wages are enough to support families.
She ain't just flaky, she's a blizzard!

WTF is wrong with these people? I caught a couple minutes of the Today Show and they were blathering about how some Iowa poll was a "game changer" and how she's now a "front-runner" along with Romney. I feel like I'm trapped in the Twilight Zone or a Fellini movie.
