I can’t bring it over, but wow!
The graph shows everything you need to know about the difference between Republicans and Democrats when it comes to jobs.

Yep. People dependent upon the gov’t are easier to control. It’s no wonder liberals want more unemployed.
They want these corps to raise wages, but they never get it. Sure, they get an additional $200/wk, but they find after a while their cost of living has gone up $1000/mo to pay for everyone’s increased wages. Or they find their job has been automated and they don’t have one anymore.

3. I wonder how many of those jobs are full-time.
I know a lot of retired people who worked a second job for the extra money and something to do but they haven’t gone back to work. It’s not worth the risk to them.

9. People should use this opportunity to demand a higher wage.
If not now, then when? If they're so desperate for employees someone interviewing who is offered the job at a low hourly rate should just say, "No thanks. But I would accept an offer of $15.00 an hour (or whatever." It's their market now. I'm assuming most of these are lower wage service type jobs. I saw a job outside my Kroger that said $11.40 an hour to start. I'd say, "Up it to $15.00 and I may consider it." If enough people do that then these greedy corporations would eventually have to pay up.
:whatever:

Or they find out that the extra $200 a month means their Section 8 housing will no longer subsidize their rent, AND their child care has gone away AND their food stamps have gone away, resulting in $1500 a month in extra expenses.
I watched a deal on youtube a while back where a girl was working for I believe $7.50 an hour, got a raise to $10.50 or so (she was promoted to shift supervisor or something - fast food) and found out all her gov't bennies were reduced or eliminated. She then went back to work, refused the promotion and dropped back to $7.50 an hour.
DUmmies should be careful what they wish for.

DUmmies live in a world that doesn't have the Law of Unintended Consequences. Arbitrary government mandated minimum wage increases don't result in lost jobs and increased consumer prices. "The Rich" will lie back and let government rape and plunder them. Crime won't increase when its risks and consequences are reduced.

It's the excuse the dummycrats need to flood the country with illegals. :thatsright:
They claim we need them in spite of the fact they don't speak the language and have little or no marketable skills.
