Democrats sure elect some extraordinarily stupid people to office.

They're not stupid, they are trying to collapse the system in every way possible. They know exactly what they're doing.

Yup, this gets them a lot of votes for the next year or two until it rolls out. Then, when things start unraveling, they can pass a new "miracle" bill and be the heroes again!

They go from one crisis to the next where the general populace is okay with whittliong away at one's rights to avert the next crisis. Along with getting the most votes dependant on the system for survival, they will vote any way they can to get that handout they didn't earn.

Teens don't have families to support was one reason they put behind it.

Still discrimination.

There's no way that would hold up on court if some teen found a lawyer to challenge it. I think the government dictating wages is BS. Even more BS is the government dictating wages based on age.

The whole thing is messed up.

Sounds like a good time to invest in fast food, grocery, and convenience stores just outside the Seattle city limits ...

This is how they drive out independant and take control of the dependant.

All while making independents look like jerks because "everyone deserves a living wage". Share more!

This here is one of the ringleaders who really pushed for the $15 per hour minimum wage... Study this individual folks.
