Raising the Minimum Wage Would Make All Our Lives Better 

[b0bthebuilder35]

Too often, people believe homelessness is due to some type of character flaw. In reality, that’s not even close. The top causes being…

1. A lack of affordable housing

2. Unemployment

3. Poverty

4. Low wages

the criteria is how the workers are treated, more than how customers are treated...

“Organized labor has raised concerns that some of the green jobs created through the new law are going into parts of the country with nonunion workforces. Labor groups are in favor of updating the labor rule as a way to boost the pay for workers in those areas. The Laborers’ International Union of North America said the update would protect the wages of millions of construction workers.

Prevailing wages are the basic hourly rate of pay and benefits paid to workers in a particular area. Before Reagan changed the federal rule in the 1980s, employers were required to pay construction workers on federal projects the equivalent of wages paid to at least 30% of workers in a given trade in a specific geographical area. Reagan changed that rule so that the prevailing wage was determined by wages paid to 50% of workers.”

THIS is the problem. Our economy is actually doing pretty good, stock markets up, jobs are being added, but the money is being stuck at the top so average Americans aren't feeling the difference. Biden has actually done a good job preventing a recession like most economists believed would happen after covid.

The high prices of everything is NOT a result of bidens policies, its a direct result of price gouging by billionaires. In 1965 the average ceo made 21x as much money as it's average employee made, today that number is 365x with multiple ceos making over 1000x more money than their average employee. They used inflation as an excuse to raise their prices even more and keep all the profits for themselves. What's worse is if one of these major companies fail, we'll be stuck subsidizing them with our tax dollars because we've allowed them to amass so much control in the market. We'll bail them out just like we've done with the auto industry or the airline industry or the banking industry. Privatize the profits socialize the losses is the American way. And this only started happening at this rate when reaganomics started deregulating everything and convinced people "the money will trickle down." Have you opened your eyes yet? The money never trickles down, it gets hoarded by the wealthy for more power and control. We are pretty much just living in an oligarchy at this point.

TAX THE RICH NOW

Exactly 14 years ago today—on July 24, 2009—the minimum wage was set at $7.25 while top 1% were worth $5T. Today, billionaire wealth is $45T+, meanwhile the min wage is still $7.25. This is what generational wage theft looks like. Pay workers. Tax billionaires. #RaiseTheWage

Shark Tank except the contestants are already existing mega-corporate capitalists (Musk, Bezos, etc.) and the “investors” are the top investors of the company(s) the contestants own.

The contestants have to make a case as to why the investors have to keep giving them money while being presented with every human rights violation the contestant has committed with their business.

There isn’t much else, I just want these people to get exposed on live TV so they can’t dodge consequences anymore.
