The minute you see the word Could. Stop reading. Everything following is a lie.
Driving drunk COULD cause you to kill someone or yourself.

More tRump bashing of American Workers.
First an attack on wages, now an attack on safety.
US wages are nearly $9 trillion.
$1.3 billion is a rounding error.
Except; ""After adjusting for inflation, however, today's average hourly wage has just about the same purchasing power it did in 1978, following a long slide in the 1980s and early 1990s and bumpy, inconsistent growth since then," he wrote. "In fact, in real terms average hourly earnings peaked more than 45 years ago: The $4.03-an-hour rate recorded in January 1973 had the same purchasing power that $23.68 would today."
Which is why I promote a $23.50/hr minimum wage.
Yes, I'm familiar with the bad math behind your recommendation.
Not to mention the bad economics.
Show me your arithmetic.
Gladly.
Tell me your starting date and the price index you're using.

I don't know who "The Economic Policy Institute" is but their conclusions are obviously phony.
"The changes would leave certain employees without the ability to hold their employers accountable for violating safety and fair pay laws."
This is bullshit. No "rule change" would prevent someone from calling OSHA to report a safety violation, or from calling Wage & Hour Division to report a problem with pay or overtime pay.
It is obviously a bullshit report.

The Economic Policy Institute has board members that deal with and have experience in the economy? I'm shocked.
They have a bunch of whiney, liberal twats. But I repeat myself.
I'm pro in promoting the American Worker. You, being a Putin "ass boy" not so much.
Then you shouldn't be such a union butt boy.
I don't hate the American Worker like you.
