        $15 at 40hrs/week is $28,800 a year and that's before taxes. In NC average rent for 2 bedroom is $993/month. Have 2 kids? Expect to pay $595/mo on food and that's the bare minimum according to NC Justice center study. Good thing they'll get those cans of beans from Trump soon.

        GREAT NEWS!!! All it took to make these companies provide a low-end cost of living wage to their employees is to take $1.7 Trillion from seniors and the destitute! WHAT A DEAL! Congratulations!

        This is awesome news. I'll bet that's almost 10% of the tax break YOU gave @MetLife. Always great when a company can throw a few bucks to the peons and keep the other 90% for shareholders - who also got the big tax cut. #WeSeeYou

        Before they announce layoffs? AT&T,Comcast,Carrier,Pfizer,Walmart,Toysrus,Sears,Kmart,Macy's,Sams,Kimberly Clark, and others have already announced drastic layoffs since the #taxscam passed. 40,000 tourism jobs lost, 23,000 solar jobs to be lost due to this regime's policies.

        And it only cost us $1.5 trillion! What a deal. For this amount, every working American could be getting a $9,554 tax free bonus if distributed equally. Oh, and how many MetLife jobs are minimum wage again? What % of their tax windfall does this equate to?

        If that’s great news for those employees, why not raise the minimum wage for the entire U.S.? That would be AWESOME news.

        Lmao! Try again met life! The 15 an hour is what the people have been demanding all along! It is considered a living wage. You are not doing anything special you are doing what the people demand of you to do. So people keep up the pressure it is working! 15 an hour Nationwide!

        Cherry picking only positive anecdotes to pass on Tommy Boy. No mention of anecdotal stories about Trump's ICE Storm Troopers yanking people apart from their families/Homes. Kind of reminiscent of Nazi Germany separating Jewish children from their Parents. Proud to be American!
