Yes it's hard to scrape by on $10.10 an hour. Agschmid Jul 2015 #42

I hope you are being sarcastic. $10.10 an hour is an insult. Poverty kills. People need a living rhett o rick Jul 2015 #60

It is sarcasm but remember it's what our candidates pay their interns... Agschmid Jul 2015 #64

What I hear her saying is that the corporations will never pay $15 min wage and therefore, get used rhett o rick Jul 2015 #61

She doesn't seem to be aware of the nation-wide MOVEMENT for a LIVING WAGE sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #34

wow for once I can agree with you ibegurpard Jul 2015 #3

Hillary will get off her privileged perch when I join the 1%. Fuddnik Jul 2015 #25

Most of the propsals for $15 are in 2020. She could one up them by proposing $75/hour Hoyt Jul 2015 #26

if she has a chance at $12 bigtree Jul 2015 #29

Sanders is supporting $12/hour in 2018. I think Clinton is supporting Hoyt Jul 2015 #33

not too myopic to see Murray's base proposal of $12 is for 2020 bigtree Jul 2015 #36

I'm fine with 15, or more. But it's got to pass. $15 in Seattle ot LA, is equivalent to $12 Hoyt Jul 2015 #38

How are we supposed to convince the GOP to vote for $15 when we can't even convince Democrats? Cheese Sandwich Aug 2015 #76

All Democrats are convinced. That's not the issue. nt stevenleser Aug 2015 #77

But Hillary refuses to endorse a $15 national minimum wage ? Cheese Sandwich Aug 2015 #78

Of course she's convinced. She isn't convinced $15 would pass. And I'm not convinced stevenleser Aug 2015 #79

So what's Martin O'Malley paying his campaign staff? Agschmid Aug 2015 #73

We really need to have someone who makes $200,000/hr tell explain how $15 is too much for the people Cheese Sandwich Aug 2015 #75

Maybe the abstraction is pushing a policy that has no chance of passing... brooklynite Aug 2015 #81
