GrokBite: Bill Clinton demands that we all pay the cost of a higher minimum wage

Once again, I can rely on Meet The Press to throw up some blog fodder from Socialistic Communitarians that believe that there should never be Liberty in action – you WILL be made to care (as Erick Erickson from RedState puts it) and contribute.  Former President Bill Clinton on the idea of raising the minimum …

GrokBite: Obama has decided that paid leave is mandatory – you only get to decide how to do it.

A rather astonishing remark by Obama’s Rasputin (the power behind the throne), Valerie Jarrett on today’s Meet The Press: I think what the President said was “look, let’s start with the premise that every American should have paid leave and then let’s have a conversation on how to get there.” The assumption left here is …
