Better yet, overthrow capitalism! Worker control of the means of Production! Abolish billionaires, as well as bosses, landlords, priests and kings.

Sad fact is that even at $27/hr, things would still be really tough in many cities because of inflation, and all the price gouging by corporations, insurance companies and landlords. But a higher minimum wage does tend to drive up wages for other workers. And that would help, as an interim reform.

for 65 years—an estimated $79T

Things are unaffordable because
billionaires are stealing from us

@MikeDunnAuthor News media should not be capitalized. #CBS, #Newscorp, #X, #Sinclair
Newscorp should not control the #DowJones in fact all exchanges should be socialized. And #SCOTUS should reflect the population, not 45% white Catholics and 55% men.
