There's a lot to worry about today.
A potential world-wide Bird flu epidemic is on its way.
(There goes the fried chicken and Thanksgiving turkey!)
Another monster hurricane is heading in the direction of Forida (stay tuned).
Anti-bacterial soaps might create stronger bacteria than plain old soap and hot water!
The minimum wage will not be increased. The U.S. Senate killed it today.
Let's begin and end with this last worrisome fact and ponder the following:
The U.S. Congress has given themselves a $28,000 pay raise in seven different increments since 1997.
But forget the Americans who pay taxes that gave them their pay increases. No increase has occurred in the Minimum Wage since 1997.
It has been $5.15 for eight years.
This greedy Congress couldn't even give the MW an $.85 increase to a more respectable (and palatable) $6.00/Hr.
Shame on our elected officials.
How about making them use some of their large pay raise(s) to increase the MW.
This is so revolting it ought to start some kind of revolution.
