10 years... how refreshingly optimistic...

In 2007, Congress passed the increase to 7.25 to take effect in 2009. The minimum wage change 15 years ago was passed 17 years ago.

I wonder how hoarders of wealth will be thought of in the distant future. If we survive, I hope they are seen as fools with misguided goals, and criminals for being vacuums of human potential.

People should be contributing ideas, creativity and wisdom instead of worrying about their next meal.
