He’ll keep using those of us who actually worked minimum wage jobs as a cudgel to fight on the internet because of how it ~ feels ~. You can count on it.
He also doesn’t know what the federal minimum wage is apparently and thinks “more than double” is somehow $14. Strong math skills on that one.
And you will keep being a pedant about it and just ignore that those extra pennies, just like the 5.1% referenced earlier in the thread, don't add up to anything when you're not being paid a living wage to begin with.
What I don't understand is why you're angrier with me than you are at Democrats and Republicans.
I’m not angry, I’m having a perfectly nice Saturday morning
