    The Plutocracy only cares if you can show up to work, if not there will always be somebody else with a heart beat.

    Excuse me but whose manufacturing profits have been rising? Only the ones using illegal Aliens and under cutting prices in the marketplace. They do nothing to shut them down because they are in Democrats protected areas like LA and SF. You have created the destruction of jobs and profits through over regulation and environmental policies that make no sense.

    Hector, you are a blithering, stupid idiot. The minimum wage law should not exist AT ALL, and our society could flourish. But you're so stupid, you could never understand that.

    I am so sick and tired of liberals such as you who understand NOTHING. Learn some skills, start a business and move up from your dishwashing job.

    Hector, I am going to post links to your response to make an example out of you, regarding how ignorant people can get.

    And yet republicans are fighting raising the minimum wage.

    If you are not part of the richest 1% of Americans and you vote republican, you don't understand the issues.
