FORWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Increasing the federal minimum wage by $2 would add about 4 cents to the cost of a fast-food hamburger.

It will lead to a bunch of predictable whining and threats of mass layoffs that never happen.

Higher the price, less is the demand. Lanor and skills are not exempt from this basic fact.

What made me nervous is when he claimed the war was over those military men were not standing and they were not smiling......I was very uncomfortable there.

The more people earn, the more demand there is. Henry Ford figured this out back in 1914.

He increased his workers wages to lessen turnover.
