Officially, New Hampshire’s minimum wage is $7.25 an hour.

Remember when FDR stole two-thirds of Americans’ savings? No, of course you don’t. It happened 87 years ago. The last time that populism existed as a major force in the world was in the 1930s. What we’re experiencing today is similar to what happened in the 1930s in many ways.

The title, taken from the tax prof blog, is the simples beginning to this piece. Income inequality is a significant burr in the Left’s backside. Sorry, that’s not quite right. It is a burr they are trying to stick to everyone else backside. Class Warfare divides, but is it as bad as they claim?

House Democrats Think They Deserve a Raise – I Think They Need a $114,000.00 Pay Cut
Members of the US House of Representatives earn $174,00.00 a year. If they are a single-family earner, without adding speaking fees or any additional income, that salary puts them above the 90th percentile for wage earners in the US. So, naturally, they think they need a raise.

Right To Work – “Dear State Legislator”
I realize most of the (Merrimack) town delegation supports right to work but as we approach the override vote I wanted to impart these remarks. If any business but a union demanded $50.00 every month from every employee, for benefits and used some of that money to finance its mostly one-party political action funding, there would be hell to pay.
