'There aint no dead weight loss from raising the minimum wage.' Get that money flowing and anyone with a pulse can get a job. And if everyone making stuff to be sold in the US has to be paid US minimum wage then there is no problem with outsourcing to.
This is just good business on a global scale. Has to be.

You want to take from the rich and give to the poor.

I just want to give to the poor.

Actually give more to the middle class. We already take care of the poor.

Correction. I want to take back from the rich. Not take from the rich. I want to give the workers that got our jobs our pay too.

I don't want to give to the poor. I want the poor to earn everything they get.

Give the bottom a free ride with inflation and let everyone else take care of themselves. That is what I want. Globally.

Ditto for Kansas.
Kansas borrows $675M to start upcoming fiscal year | CJOnline.com

The 2016 campaign slogan for the GOP should be, "Kick the Can Down the Road!"
1) Every state does this. Heck IL not only borrows and spends....they increase taxes, and borrow and spend. lol.

2) Have you considered recalling Walker? I hear it's a sure thing.
