Democrats have made the issue of "income inequality" the cornerstone of their platform going into the November elections. In less than two months, the House Democrats will discuss this and other issues at the swanky and posh St. Regis hotel in Manhattan. Rooms start at $695 a night if you would like to join them.
Of course, you can't simply show up at the DCCC's "Issues Conference." According to the email invitation, "[t]his annual Issues Conference is open to 2014 DCCC Business and Labor Council Platinum Members and to our 2014 Chairmans Council Members." I'm not certain what it takes to be a "plantinum member," but I imagine it takes the kind of money that doesn't blink at a $695 hotel room. Helpfully, the DCCC says you can contact them to determine one's "eligibility."

With “income inequality” and minimum wage the Democrats are establishing a narrative with the purpose to portray Republicans as the “bad guys”. Don’t allow them to establish the narrative.
Re-frame the issue as one of justice, rather than “fairness” with Democrats being the arbiter of “fairness” and Democrats accumulating power.

The Democrats are reaching down to the bottom of the crab bucket again. They don’t have any success stories to brag about, so they are serving up stale hash from one of the most elegant hotels in NYC.
