Problem here is that too many people do not want to accept the jobs being offered, even with wages being up.

Would being paid $15 a hour be enough for you to work 40 hours serving people in today's climate?

That question is better suited for Uncle Buck to answer.

If I remember correctly, raising the minimum wage Nationally, to barely a livable/sustainable sum, $15 an hour was voted down by the Republicans, with 1 supposed Democrat, Sen. Senema from Arizona, agreeing.
Am I wrong?

If your asking me, I have no idea. I can only assume you are correct. I'm only relying on Uncle Buck's statement.

Why? I would like to ask you because you are the one acting like being under 5% unemployment rate is a bad thing while there is a dangerous virus running around our nation.
Im not sure which conservative Democrats joined with the 50 Republicans to kill this, but Biden did pass an Executive Order to mandate $15 for federal workers.

I'll answer in case @UncleBuck can't.
Fuck No!!!
How much do you make, may I ask?
You can not afford even a fucking apartment in today's housing market today on even $15 an hour.

So is employment. Are you pretending like Biden has seen more jobs added in his first 9 months than any other POTUS has?
Jobs are up, wages are up, inflation has been stabalizing from the high numbers that are also a direct result of the Trump/Republican led economic collapse, on and on. People should not let the right wing propaganda machine trick themselves into thinking that somehow things are going in the wrong direction just because everything is not fixed after the worst recession in modern history due to Trump's shit economic policies leading up to his shit handling of the pandemic.

I am seeing prices for everything surge like it’s 1972. If the accountants are honest, the last 12 months have seen cost of living up at least 10%.

Anything you want to know about me, by the way, are you still working for the IRS?. If I heard correctly, our current POTUS has ordered you guys to check out not only mine, but all other citizens and non-citizens who have banking accounts.
