    Lifting millions out of poverty wages isn’t “masturbation”. Wealth inequality can be traced to several problems within the country, and can be directly linked to several factors leading to the election of Trump.

        a DNC candidate would likely be someone like newsom, they will never budge on israel, and taxing billionaires, or healthcare.

        I hold no faith in the political process, so I’d be inclined to agree. The only way to ensure a living wage is to organize a union. We can’t wait for crumbs from the ruling class.

      What? Pretending like you are going to lift millions out of poverty sure is masturbatory. What road map do you envision that would allow this to happen. Do you think that they think they can pass this with a fascist regime in power? They know damn well it’s just fanfare.

        What road map do you envision

        I envision workers using this news as an organizing tool to form unions and bargain for higher than $25/hr, regardless of whether it happens.
