Kindling for a fire the likes of which our political class seems not to understand.
The average rent in the US hit a new record high of $1,827 last month. On the federal minimum wage of $7.25 people take home $1256 a month. People aren't exaggerating when they say it's becoming unlivable here.

Can't argue with that. I don't think the minimum wage is the problem though. The problem is much bigger.

Yes. I agree but most folks make a lot more than 7.25

Raising the minimum wage is just going to cause more inflation, same with universal basic income

How can people keep voting for these lawmakers ... year after year ... when this is the result!

I firmly believe our political class will do nothing until it鈥檚 too late and the flames of that fire are consuming them. Throughout history the corrupt elites have always been caught off guard when the revolution began.

except, they do understand - they're going to channel all of the rage & anger at minorities, immigrants & women as always. & this time the plan includes a fully fascist government.

It would be 1000 times worse under a socialist regime

Maybe Nancy Pelosi could donate her 160 million dollars to helping out?
