The wages for workers rising fastest in a decade. Low unemployment, competition for workers.

Demorats will protest the rock solid labor market by refusing to work, making it even more difficult to find workers and pushing wages even higher

Winning on so many levels

Yikes! The workers are getting too much power. It’s time to crash the economy again to keep labor costs under control.

The democrats have tried, and they have been thoroughly overpowered and beat by the sheer will of the American worker and all their collective might. Calling everyone racist, bigot, Hitler, will do nothing to stop this mighty locomotive

They are rising in cities and towns that didn't raise minimum wage, thank record low unemployment and competition for workers

Wages are rising in liberal mega cities while the recovery and economic expansion continues to largely bypass rural America.

Workers with a brain also know that the Federal Deficit is rising as well and their children and grandchildren will be paying higher taxes to pay it off. Have those low-wage Mississippi workers all joined the ranks of the middle-class?

This is not true. Swing states like Pennsylvania, Michigan have all seen rises in per capita incomes
