If only Democrats had the stones to do this.

    They only mention livable wages when they are not in a position to do anything about it.

    We need $25 now, not $17 in 5 years. Bernie has become a fucking joke and a shadow of who he used to be

      Or how about just no wages? Kick out the capitalists stealing the profits and divide that amongst the workers.

      Abolish the wage system.

      In fairness, this was just as unlikely to pass under democrats.

      Amazing how every time they’re powerless they wanna raise the minimum wage (to what we asked in 2012), legalize weed, codify Roe v. Wade, and this time stop Trump.

      If they get a hold of Congress who much do you think they’ll go for it? Assuming we have elections again.
