Let's just cut to the chase and statutorily make everyone millionaires. And when the contractors start charging higher prices to the government, we can raise taxes on all the millionaires to pay for it. Then everyone can be poor and broke millionaires.

That's how Leftytoons roll.

What o they have to lose? Might as well try. More power to them.

And no one will notice when 15 becomes worth what 7 was worth 5 years ago.

Great, make it whatever number you like. I'm sure no one will mind when companies higher fewer people and make those who remain be far more productive.

This is all an interesting debate (well, we don't really "debate" here), but employers will do what they have to do to survive.

Oh, and that's the case regardless of the country, by the way.

Whatever, this should be interesting.

Good for them. If they don't stand up for themselves, who will? Republicans? Ha, not a chance.

Stand up for yourself before you accept a job at a low rate of pay.

Trickle up poor

That is the end goal though supporters see it as middle class.
The goal is to ensure that all are given fairly equal shares. Some rich and some poor but the vast majority even in the middle. Unfortunately, everyone is never equally wealthy, only equally poor.
