  • what about the disabled? should they live in poverty due to the inability to earn a wage? Or about jobs for the disabled? I know many disabled people that live FAR below the poverty level here in america, I'm talkin about living in slums, never able to drive, and a generally tough life. i see these people that have it far worse off them my own family or myself...and I thought my life was hard, at least I got a pretty wife, handsome son and a roof over our heads.and a full tummy. life is good!

  • Just us or JUSTICE didn't roll around here plays well down south though. Some big businesses will find ways to skirt paying anyway they can. If they just were so innovative in creating profits, hmmmm...

  • Fair pay is what the labor market demands, not what the government requires.

  • hard work deserves FAIR PAY
