[Truth is a Weapon]

Stupid people who think there is a free lunch and the government can just wave a wand and make everyone better off. Hasn’t the 0bamacare fiasco given them enough evidence that government can’t create wealth. It can only loot wealth and waste it.

From $7.25 to $9.00 is a 25% increase. Ask those same people if they would favor a government policy that would raise the cost of a McDonald’s happy meal, their groceries and their Starbucks by 25% and you will get a 180 poll result.

I’d like to get a 25% raise for having minimum skills.

Let's see. Since labor is only 25% of the retail price(food industry average) then; if wages go up 25% then the price of the happy meal goes from up 6.25% NOT 25%.
