Raising Minimum Wage, Higher Taxes on Rich Will Bring Disaster...oh, wait.

States like Kansas and Louisiana are facing economies in free fall under Republican leadership.  Cutting funding for education to cover budget shortages in those and other Republican-led states including Wisconsin has become de rigueur.   

Minnesota's Governor Mark Dayton (D) has another message:


Do you think Governors Sam Brownback (R), Bobby Jindal (R), Scott Walker (R) will learn anything from this?  How about any of the GOP's presidential candidates?  Do you think it's possible congressional Republicans will find a lesson in this example of fairer taxes and livable wages? 

Nah, me either.

  1. Dear WhatEyeThynk,
    You asked "Do you think it's possible congressional Republicans will find a lesson in this example of fairer taxes and livable wages?"

    No. Because all, every-damn-one of these republicans are OWNED by the very same rich folks that are fighting tax & minimum wage increases.
    God forbid that these multi billionaires would do anything (anything at all) to lessen the burden of the working poor.
    To those who would say "...let them eat cake" I say:
    "Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men? It is the music of a people Who will not be slaves again! When the beating of your heart Echoes the beating of the drums There is a life about to start When tomorrow comes!
