Finally they're starting to get it. In fact there should be an equation to automatically raise minimum wage depending on the rate of inflation. Either that or we could go back to the gold standard and never have to worry about inflation ever again.
"AWARENESS" is an important thing for people to have. Also "WHEN YOU CHANGE THE WAY YOU LOOK AT THINGS THE THINGS YOU LOOK AT CHANGE." A Yogi said this phrase to me, and please pass it on to your fellow Americans. KEEP PREACHING THE TRUTH FOR IT SHALL SET YOU FREE.
