46. A living wage isn't a gift, it's a right. Workers are often paid far less than the value they create

Put that on billboards, put in email signatures, on bumper stickers, in editorials, on your social media profiles. Say it and post it everywhere. This is the essential truth of working. A truth that all conservatives deny and fight against.

A living wage isn’t a gift, it’s a right. Workers are often paid far less than the value they create.
