Attachment 3314
(Its a trap.)
If minimum wage had been raised as it should have been #1 American workers would have had more spending power and thusly more money would be available for businesses to prosper #2 the US and its states would have had greater revenues to draw on. Perhaps the greatest taxes should be on those who add little to no value to society: banks, merchants, speculative traders. Some States suffer financially because they are so lenient when taxing those who make lots of $$$$. I'm talking fair and reasonable taxes. Illinois is also a state where you can be a teacher and retire and collect six-figure pension. Minimum wage workers have been taxed by not getting paid $10 to $16 an hour for far too long. I have doubts about Buffet or Soviet Spymaster Hillary being heroes in any form. Buffet is probably very much aware he will not in any inconvenient way be subject to those taxes they propose.
