Fine For Me, But Not For Thee

Apparently it was necessary for Congressional salaries to increase by approximately $30K since 1997, but Republicans don’t see a need to raise the minimum wage.

I want one of those who keep claiming that raising the minimum wage costs jobs to point to some facts to back that claim. It has never happened any other time the minimum wage was increased. We are raising the minimum wage in Florida and our employment is stable.

It is another convenient lie, like cutting taxes increases revenues. It doesn’t happen, but the claim keeps being made.
