        @ugliestaltarboy @USDOL not really feasible. Areas have a bare minimum required to survive and that's not always met by wages.

        @ugliestaltarboy @USDOL Too late to try to reinstate survival of the fittest now. Either we care for each other or we all suffer.

        @USDOL raising the minimum wage would put tons of businesses go under, and raises would be non existent. Stupid idea, stupid!

        @MrMurder37 @USDOL possibly, but only by around $1, not by $7-8.......that is to much. How will little mom and pops handle it?

        @MrMurder37 @USDOL so you think mom and pop shops that can barely make payroll now will be able to survive with their payroll doubling?

        @EminemsRevenge @USDOL the GOP has been terrible at job creation for 30+ years kind of hard to spite your eyeballs.
