Another stellar hearing in which our senior senator cuts to the truth on a topic we’ve heard so much crap about. This info is profound and the difference a fair minimum wage would make in millions of lives is hard to fathom. (I’m also convinced that the minimum wages discussed at this hearing would have boosted our economy beyond our imagination.) Shame on anyone who tries to keep it where it is. (Again, though, empty chairs reveal the county’s hard-working lawmakers. What’s their hourly wage?)

Happy Weekend.
