State of the Union Rebuttal

I wonder how many jobs are going to be lost when employers have to decide who to keep and who to let go because they cannot afford to pay a government-mandated  $9/hr wage to all their employees.

The Minimum Wage is that--a minimum.

It's not supposed to be a living wage; the premise of "minimum" is that you aspire to rise above it--not wait until the government raises it.

About the only thing tonight's SOTU speech inspired me to do was turn off the TV.
