I haven't made minimum wage for years. But for those who have to live on

it, you realize that even though we have the nation's highest minimum

wage, it is still a far cry from being comfortable. Not to mention that

few, if any, minimum wage jobs come with health insurance. @ Pico - This matter was settled by Oregon voters a number of years ago. How about option D - Take a pay cut, you greedy fu*k? And withdron - If you think the minimum wage is so high, why don't you try living on it?

Given Dudley's lack of governing experience, can we pay him less than minimum wage if he's successful in buying this election?

Chris Dudley is spot on.

Why should a waiter or waitress make several times the income of a McDonalds employee, by giving them minimum wage AND tips?

Lots of them make more money than white collar employees at that rate.

@klickitat7332 : your guy lost, and you need to accept the fact that he lost because he was a dipshit loser and a flop,flunkee,fucktard failure like you,

it's over.......either kill yourself or get over it you sniveling little vagina

@bearcat8543 You are right. I've aspired to be a bit more than that. But I know plenty that have and they grossed well over $20/hour and that was 15 years ago. If you can't make $12/hour as a waiter, you should go buy some rope and...

@llar87 If you can't make $11.00 an hour as a waiter/waitress then go dig yourself a hole you POS. Fucking Dumbass?? Go look in the mirror you little fuckwad

Dudley's idea was not to lower the minimum wage for everyone but to have a training wage for teenage kids working in fast food restaurants and such. Many employers (including my own) start their new hires at a reduced wage until they are fully trained.  There are also many jobs that have interns who work for nothing until they are trained. We won't find out if Dudley's plan would work or not because Kitzhaber won. The few of us that are still working will all be working for minimum wage now.

That's one reason I hate republicans. For some reason, they want to they hate the few dollars the poorest of the poor are making. You have to be a serious prick to want to pick on people who are barely scraping by.

@savedslave

Let the state employees go on minimum wage and the Oregon Health Plan... They are what caused this mess...

I am more happy about Democrats losing than I am about Republicans winning.

I am very happy Shit Slobber lost...

Here is what was really said....of course you need to type in youtube.com on before this.... /watch?v=yEaSO-gIywI Democrats or Republicans....both sides of the same coin.

[broncobilly25]

Laughable to say the least. Do you know why they didn't play the question he was asked or what he said the minute before this quote? It was taken out of context...now that said, do not vote for the D's or the R's....they are both sides of the same coin!
