So the Republicans are proposing gradually raising the minimum wage to $10

[bif]

by 2025? Seriously? Is this a joke?

1. over 100 years or so?

[area51]

2. Insane and cruel.

People need at least $15 an hour right now.

[patphil]

3. Golly, a whole $2.75 over 4 years!

Their generosity is unbelievable.

[frazzled]

4. 20 States already have minimum wage laws over $10

So, no, that is not enough. And a hike to $10 would not need a phase-in period. It could be done immediately.

5. Every Republican should live on $10.00 an hour for one year using the standard of 8 hours a day

paycheck for a week.

6. Should be raised to $20 and do it retroactively back to 2016.

4 years from now is unreasonable.
