This morning I went grocery shopping with Alison, a local mother, student, and worker on minimum wage. It has been 3 long years since workers saw a federal minimum wage increase. Since then, nearly everything has increased but the minimum wage: the price of milk, the price at the pump, the cost of a college education. That's why I'm a cosponsor of the Fair Minimum Wage Act. Like if you think it's time to raise the minimum wage.

And the funny part is, they have to click on "Like" to be able to post how much they hate him.

Raising the minimum wage would be a really good stimulus for the economy too.

That's why I won't ever be posting anything on any romney/ryan/rand/bush/boner/palin etc sites. Because I can't bring myself to declare any sort of "like" for them, even when it's merely a Facebook click.
