Dems look to reward their key voters

The House is wanting to raise the minimum wage to $7.25/hr.
Because ya know, their base can't live on $10,712 per year, working those highly skilled jobs that the government schools have educated them for.

Look, the minimum wage is for people just starting out in the workforce. Cr@p- McDonalds is starting people with absolutly no experience at over $6/hr. WHO works for minimum wage anymore? Really? I know in Cali they have grorcery-baggers unions, and a check-out clerk at a supermarket is looking at their lifelong job. But here in the real America, people don't expect to be making the minimum wage when they're over say 23- even if they're still working a McJob- unless they're completly worthless.
