I'll counter your Dylan verse with a Dylan song; that's why we're shooting warning shots at Iran in their own backyard in the Strait of Hormuz. Wanna bet?youtube.com/JEmI_FT4YHU

And to think instead of a true, forward thinking, progressive as our president - we ended up with this. 🤦‍♂️ We should already have a minimum wage of at least $15. And if that doesn't float your boat, then at least force employers to pay more for quality workers! Biden is 🚫.

I know he's been better than expected. But every time I watch him, I think to myself that we could have had an articulate, true progressive, true champion of the ppl. I think that we could have had universal health care.

He should tell us what he means by suitable. I’m sure our definition and his are totally different. #M4A #LivingWage

Suitable job?

Biden is a split personality. He's already advocated for violation of privacy. His comments show a superficial grasp of a deeply complex situation & are extremely insulting. If a republican said this he's be lambasted.

How about that meeting with Manchin?! Maybe he knows 🤔
Replying to @marwilliamson
He literally said earlier today that more people would be returning to work if they were getting paid higher wages. Getting whiplash here

How about the government creates some of those Green Deal jobs and the government offers all those jobs paying the appropriate reasonable wage. If the private sector can’t keep up, guess they lose those employees.
