Joe Biden Promotes 15 Million Dollar Minimum Wage, Uh – 15 Thousand, No wait…

Biden's Droid Army in their Safety Circles

Joe Biden being Joe Biden, is having some issues reading his teleprompter. In this short clip, he’s talking about using the government to make you more money (hey, it worked for him). But he can’t quite get the words right.

He says 15 Million, Uh – 15 Thousand, Uh…15 dollar minimum wage.

I’m particularly fond of the focus on the number of people who disapprove. The camera pans to the thumbs down versus up, and well, you saw it. Not a lot of support there for the Biden message.

We can hope that translates into the millions of voters. The fight for 15 is an arbitrary union driven message. There is no science behind it, and the rhetoric is worse. It only serves to pander to people who, unbeknownst to most of them, will become unemployed or unemployable as a result.

Landing them in the loving arms of the dependency state where luminaries like Joe Biden will attach strings to them and work them like a bunch of puppets in exchange for a subsistence lifestyle.

You could choose that, or you could do it on your own steam and find the results are much better. Freedom has a lot of prices, one of them is you have to work and earn. Anyone giving you a handout expects something in return.
