If employers won’t pay a living wage govt has to support workers or, workers don’t live.
It’s not rocket science. It’s the cost of doing business.
The law of supply and demand applies to everything. Even labour.

As the Trump administration clumsily moves toward an unnecessary and irresponsible and narcissistic war with Venezuela, I want to take a brief moment to offer this sentiment to those who voted for him over VP Harris because they believed it would keep us out of unnecessary wars:
FUCK. YOU.

Yes. Thanks. I remember this announcement. Experts said it was a start. From the presser, the new Financial Crimes Agency still needs to be started with legislation (planned Spring 2026) and (me) sufficiently funded to operate. We'll see.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.
A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”
