I really think folks should strive for a higher wage. Some rather make this wage and receive assistance from the government. If you don't think this is true, you should have worked with me when I worked for VCU and worked within the poorer communities of the city.
Folks, Im awestruck at the lack of talk about education in this campaign. This is how you lift folks up. It affects a ton of other issues, especially income inequality, minimum wage, entitlement programs, government spending, etc.
This is really a dumb country. For some reason folks want hand outs...its easier I guess. Free college, free health, free family leave, free everything...
