Now, right now, the voices AGAINST a raise in MINIMUM WAGES are lining up,

to voice there collective no’s, to the promise from Democrats, to raise minimum wages in the first 100 hours.


All evidence that the rise in minimum wage is a positive indicator for local, state economies is in and has in addition, been positive for small business employers and the Labor.

The voices against any rise in minimum wages, have voiced doom and gloom, but the Armageddon has not come, any economist, or finance analyst who has voiced this is thinking only of, the few who are truly reactionaries employers, who want to keep wages low and profits high, and know, those who cut jobs, claiming they can’t afford labor are not realist, they want a certain profit and to prove there point, which is un-provable, they will cut labor and use the minimum wages, as the reason for the reactionary move.

Profits are way up today, evidenced the by the Stock Market and in some respects the interest rates. Labor has not had a raise in 9 plus years, all of Congress has had 5 plus raises since the last Minimum wage raise. Labor is way past do, too get at the least a $9 to $10 dollar a hour average around the nation, but the new Congress will advance $7.25 an hour, as a compromise, with the President, US Business and Republicans, these comprise the largest block, who oppose ANY raise in minimum.

These Plutocrats, believe, that what ever wage a business persons is willing to pay is enough, even though they all practice passing inflation, material cost and there desire for ever higher PROFITS, on to the consumer and believe a cost of living increase is a burden, only in thinking, employee’s should stop believing, they deserve anything, other than what employers give them, they hate Unions, Pensions, Collective Bargaining and the US Labor Department. They loathe EEOC, Workmen Compensation and Unemployment Compensation and they believe the American dream is a bankrupt idea.

The elite 1% of America, regularly discusses at Country Clubs, Golf Courses and at Seminars, every word I wrote above. American Businesses have been racing the world too the bottom, they have been selling out American labor, Manufacturing, in Free Trade Treaties and this ahs been by–partisan as was Immigration, every accountable US Agency was absolutely derelict, in there legal responsibility, since the Amnesty sell-out of 1996.

American Labor, deserves a big raise and a compromise raise is all we will get, that’s the sad part of this, we will get a water down Immigration Bill, with guest workers shoved down Americans throats, but if we stand up and be counted we can force Congresses hands to do more than $7.25… America do not settle for less than, $9 to $10 an hour raise in MINIMUM WAGES.
