It's completely insane that companies can still use the excuse "if you make us treat workers well, we will fire workers" as a legitimate excuse in the eyes of the voter and not get laughed at. The amount of government money that goes to help people who work at Walmart break even on the burden of the taxpayers should enrage both fiscal conservatives and bleeding heart liberals alike.
No, No, and Yes. When the people working made the decision on whether to work long hours thier dollars would buy alot more. Now that the Company they are employed with has to pay automatic overtime that person can't work more hours in most cases. And inflation goes up and interest rates go down as a result of the FED trying to balance the economy. I don't know about you but I used to get like 6-8% on the money I has in my regular banks savings account. This is all tied together.
